At All Cost ( NY ) - live on WNYU radio 10/25/90 and CBGB 10/15/89





















Excellent underrated NYHC band who kicked around the scene from 87/88 - 90/91. I saw At All Cost live many times back in the day playing shows at CBGB, The Anthrax, Sundance and on and on, sharing bills with the likes of Killing Time/Raw Deal, Token Entry, Cro-mags, Destruction, Candlemas and Suicidal Tendencies...just to name a few.

Anyway, while At All Cost were not one of the top NYHC bands back in the day, at least based on popularity, they still had a pretty successful run of it none the less, and did manage to release 2 excellent demo tapes, one in 1988 and one in 1990. Both demo tapes are highly recommended listening and can be found below...Dave G.

    Awesome. About fucking time. Underrated and have gone on to some pretty great other fucking bands. Great sound in a scene that seemed to grow pretty stale in those lean years of 89-91. Great guys also.

    Thanks for posting this Dave. I had the original demos they released and remember doing a review for Unite at one point. They might have been a second tier NYHC band but they had a good sound and managed to get on some awesome bills. It's important bands like AAC aren't forgotten or lost in the shuffle.

    I used to tape just about every episode of Crucial Chaos back in the 80's and early 90's but i somehow missed this one.

    I hope you decide to keep posting on the blog while we work on Rockets Unite.

    P.S. That Tim dude has a dirty mouth. Hey Tim, tone it down. I got a wife and kids.

    James sorry if Tim's fucking language fucking offended you lol.

    We'll see how it goes. I haven't missed posting on the blog one bit, but from time to time I am going to post a review, or hype a band that deserves attention like At All Cost. I'm just not going to be as active as I was in the past.

    Amazing Rockland County hardcore band featuring members of Dahlia Seed and Dave's brother Darin on drums. Definitely deserve some accolades.
