We're back with the second half of our conversation with one of hardcore's all time greatest frontmen: Freddy Cricien AKA Freddy MADBALL. We discuss their hectic, but iconic performance at the legendary Dynamo Open Air 1995, the evolution of the karate mosh, the classic NYHC Documentary, Demonstrate my Style, Look My Way, Hold It Down, Madball initially breaking up in the early 2000s, New York Hardcore after 9/11, and so much more... Thank you all for joining us for both parts of this incredible chat, thank you to Freddy for joining us and for paving the way. Hardcore lives. Madball's next LP "Not Your Kingdom" is coming soon. _______________ Cool Links: • Get 15% off DUNABLE GUITARS with code HARDLORE • Get 10% off MILLS VINTAGE site-wide with code HARDLORE Get 10% off GUILTY PARTY site-wide with code HARDLORE and grab some of our favorite clothing brands of all time. _______________ 00:00:00 - Start 00:01:27 - Dynamo Open Air Festival 1995 00:10:04 - The Evolution of Moshing 00:15:53 - The NYHC Documentary/Rick Ta Life 00:34:14 - Stigma Leaving Madball 00:35:30 - DEMONSTRATING MY STYLE: Pride, Madball's Growing Influence, Agnostic Front Reunion 00:53:12 - Pardon This Interruption... 00:57:41 - LOOK MY WAY: Leaving Roadrunner, Contributing Musically, Developing the Live-isms 01:10:57 - HOLD IT DOWN: Legal Trouble, Perfecting the Madball Sound, Breaking Up 01:22:38 - September 11th, 2001 01:29:00 - The NYHC EP & The H2O Show That Brought Back Madball 01:33:30 - LEGACY: Introducing Madball to the Next Generation 01:40:23 - INFILTRATE THE SYSTEM: A Prophecy Fulfilled 01:45:52 - New York Hardcore Word Association 01:48:46 - EMPIRE: Madball in the Late 2000s 01:54:28 - Most Underrated NYHC Band of All Time 01:56:26 - HARDCORE LIVES & FOR THE CAUSE: Is There an End in Sight? 02:04:03 - Ending the Lockdown: Tompkins Square Park 2021 02:09:07 - The Future of Madball 02:11:45 - Madball Eats Good 02:17:13 - Top 4 HC Records Of All Time HardLore: A Knotfest Series, Fueled by Monster EnergyEdited by Steven Grise • Title sequence by Nicholas MarzlufJoin the HARDLORE PATREON to watch every single weekly episode early and ad-free, alongside exclusive monthly episodes.Join the HARDLORE DISCORD for community discussions and to participate in our future Q&A episodes.FOLLOW HARDLORE: INSTAGRAM, TWITTER, SPOTIFY, APPLEFOLLOW COLIN: INSTAGRAMFOLLOW BO: INSTAGRAM, TWITTER For sponsorship opportunities, email us! hardlore@knotfest.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
