Sick new addition to the Grave Mistake store - killer DC HARDCORE compilation LP which also is the inaugural release from @secondstrecords !!
Excellent blend of hardcore subgenres - something for everyone and if you aren’t a total poser you will love them all. Crazy that DC has this many GOOD hardcore bands. Get this comp!
Thank you to everyone who came to the record release show last Sunday! It was a special one.
Here are the two covers we had available exclusively for the show.
1. Self portrait by Martin Sorrendeguy
2. A painting of Laughing Corpse by Lisa Carver
Thanks again!

“DCHC, wot is it? A sound as diverse as the scene it represents, DCHC is more a state of being than a brand name. This compilation serves as a survey of DCHC today, many different outlooks, experiences and approaches but a common thread of devotion to the underground, which is no mistake as this record was literally recorded underground, beneath the floor of a certain record store in the NW quadrant of the district, the same block where members of half the bands work and interact on a daily basis.” - Mean Gene
Record stores hit us up 😈 we’d love to supply
