Old photos from #thelawrencearms playing a #firehouseshow in #newjersey in August 2003. #punk #PunkRock #chicagopunk

A harsh judgment, perhaps, but knowing some of these players from well-played but firmly "not-for-me" pop punk outfits, I just didn't know they had this in them.

Sounds like: Earth-2 ARTICLES OF FAITH's debut 7" "What We Want Is Blood."

Feels like: a brick and a knife and a boot to the temple.

Looks like: Chicago still likes hardcore.
