Reflections on straight edge
For anyone considering being straight edge, I will tell you that it was a very difficult decision to make. I have been straight edge since 1998, and I can remember the day that I decided to stop drinking and smoking and be straight edge. I had the experience of being able to try booze and cigs before, so it wasn't like I was missing out on anything. This however is something that causes people to break their edge - they feel like they are missing out on something. Straight edge isn't a set of rules, or a gang, it's a way of life. I can now say I have NO straight edge friends anymore who I talk to and hang out with - this is pretty sad. Many of them have moved on and I am increasingly feeling isolated. I do however feel that part of being edge is being positive, and this feeling has helped me in the toughest times. How have you felt?
SHELTER - HERE WE GO
Though not a straightedge band, this album was influential to me and found a regular rotation in my CD player.
Bane - Can we start again
They say they aren't a straight edge band, but Bane will always be there as one of my favorite bands.

Strife - Blistered
This video was one of the first I saw when I was first getting into hardcore music. It has a killer breakdown part and the bassist flips his guitar - so cool!
Blog about Straight Edge
I started this blog about Straight Edge, I have been edge since 1998 - and it has helped me greatly throughout my life. Mainly it has kept me out of drugs and alcohol...and thats why I wanted to write this blog. I want everyone to know that it can make a positive impact on your life. Mainly this blog will be about cool bands I have listened to over the years, and I'll be posting up some YouTube videos of bands or shows I've been to.
