I am not sure how many people on here know or listen to Vision, but this has me in shock. Vision are one of my favorite hardcore bands from the Tri-State area. They make me proud of my NJ roots and a lot of the bands that played with them or followed in their footsteps. If you have never heard In the Blink of An Eye, do yourself a favor and listen. But aside from the music he will leave behind, Dave was one of the nicest, most genuine dudes. Everyone got along with him and he was this straight edge goofball who didn't mind making fun of himself. I will always remember when Vision opened for Sheer Terror and Max Pen and they all had a great time joking and reminiscing about the old days when hardcore wasn't fashionable and he was rocking (and then still rocking) his swatch so he didn't have to paint those X's on his hands every time. At the end of his career there were some hard and heavy sets that didn't miss a step. He would joke how he was old and had to retire (he eventually did at the H2O show in Philly a month or two ago) but Vision would still be the freshest and tightest band in the room rivaling the energy of the young buck bands. RIP Dave. Second NJ legend we lost in 2 months.

2 new EPs are available starting NOW. MANALIVE, New Jersey´s heavyweights, while relatively new on the scene as a band are certainly old faces when it comes to its members. Indeed, comprised of ex members of Kill Your Idols, Ensign, Rain On The Parade, Vision, Torchbearer, Millhouse, Nora,... this HardCore supergroup offers 5 intense, heavy HardCore hitters reminiscent of 108, Snapcase and The Hope Conspiracy. Regular black vinyl limited to 300, gold vinyl ltd. to 100 and clear vinyl ltd. to 100. Co-produced with Bitter Melodies Records. KIDS INSANE took our hearts hostage when playing Berlin last summer. These 4 kids from Tel Aviv played the most insane show ever and it was love at first sight. 4 months later we have this beautiful EP with 6 frenzy, powerful, emotionally charged HC tunes that will appeal to kids who like Comeback Kid, Betrayed and Black Flag. 318 copies on black, 86 on silver and 102 on blue. Get it while it lasts! You can get them here: www.goodwillrecords.net or drop us a line here. Adam
