The third cut on CINDER's 2005 tour tape is called "You Can't buy The Kids," and it's simply one of the raddest posi fastcore tracks of the mid '00s - the kind of song that reminds you why there are formulas that many bands follow. The kind of song that reminds you why you love fast hardcore. CINDER were a couple of years behind the explosion that started in the late '90s, and I think their output gets overlooked as a result. But now we have 20/21 hindsight (see what I did there?), and what is the real difference between 2001 and 2005? Basically nothing. Check their final 12" Barcelona , it didn't come out until 2010 but it's an absolute stunner. Six tracks here and not a dull moment among them - the real highlight might be "En Pie De Guerra," which later appeared on Barcelona. Just honest, ripping hardcore punk. Music for skating, for hanging out with your friends, for making new friends, for singing along. I do miss this shit....I really do.
