Piledriver - Straight From The Gutter: Laguna Street-Edged Crew





DOWNLOAD

This was Piledriver's second effort, released after their first four song demo cassette was put out back in early 2000's. I think this was the first cd release by Railroad Records, and this was release # 2 on their catalog. This was to mark the beginning of the Railroad Label's operations in Laguna, kicking it off together with their sampler series, showcasing the south's most deserving bands.

This band has paid it's dues and continues to do so, still organizing shows in their area every year for more than a decade now. Another of the local greats who have managed to tour Hong Kong independently a couple of years ago, being an inspiration to Laguna's younger breed of Hardcore kids.

This record shows Piledriver at their early stages, as a young 4-piece NYHC -inspired unit. Taking cues from where locals Biofeedback, NFH and the others left off.
