When we think about European hardcore, or more specifically Scandinavian hardcore, we tend to go right to the home of mangel and kangpunk: Sweden. I think in terms of longevity that even Norway is often thought about more even though for the life of me I couldn't name any Norwegian hardcore beyond Svart Framtid or Fader War. Anyway, three 2019 releases really made me double back and get back into Finnish hardcore. There were so many projects coming from towns like Tampere and Helsinki and elsewhere that made huge marks not just on Scandipunk but the international punk scene abroad as well. In this episode we're going to hear a bevy of heavyweights that have all had equal import in terms of the hardcore/punk/crossover/thrash scene and I feel hit just as hard now as when this stuff was new... and some of it is new as you'll hear. So relax and crack a cold one and prepare to have your ears blasted from the land of the Winter War: the Fury of Finnish Hardcore.
