Robert Cheeseman (Spirits – bass)

SPB: is the best hardcore song, ever?

Cheeseman: The best hardcore song?  Hell if I know!  One of my favorite hardcore bands though is Faded Grey.  I remember downloading "The New Crusades" off of revhq sometime in late 2000 and it was definitely a gateway moment that led me to discover a lot of bands and labels I had not heard of at that point in my youth.  Punk is hands down my “first love” when it comes to music but the handful of hardcore bands that I found thanks to that Faded Grey song is pretty astounding and it opened my eyes to a whole new sub-genre that I've grown to love just as much.
