I think that Spain is different from the rest of the world. I mean: we have only had a scene since the 90's.
In the 90's there were some good bands like:
Afterlife (who will play the latest shows with 7 Seconds here in Spain after 8-9 years)
Refraining
Standstill (but they play something like pop right now)
Shorebreak RIP
They were the most popular bands in Barcelona.

Out Come the Wolves RIP
Nowadays the scene is very poor, I mean, a very few people go to hxc shows.
And if we have to talk about straight edge...well, the scene is SO poor.
Now here are some hxc bands that still play:
The Defense
Cinder
Fresh Trash
Gulag
Hzero
Fix me
Anal hard
Good Fellaz
And the hxc fest of Barcelona is Fire 'n' Ice Fest
I received this message:
ReplyDeleteI live in Barcelona and here now the hxc community is very small, a couple of years ago we had many very good bands like Out Come The Wolves, Effort, Cinder (the last show is in two months)...But now people don't go to shows and when american bands come to Europe on a tour they never come to spain and stuff like that.
Unfortunately here the things are very bad, but we are still here!
Take Care!
