More old merch!

Below are some old and rare Christian hardcore merch that my dude Michael took pictures of and sent me to be posted on here for everyone to see.  I'm quite jealous of this little collection, especially the Focused and Unashamed shirts.   I miss how old bands used to do their merch.  Anyway, check it out!

Here's a Slingshot David shirt:

Unashamed demo!

Unashamed - Demo (1993)



I don't have an exact release date for this demo either, so if anyone knows, please comment or email me. Otherwise, check out more Unashamed stuff in my previous posts on the band!

SPIRIT-FILLED HARDCORE

Once again, jealous of you Stephen. Thanks for the picture.

Unashamed

Unashamed was sadly only together from about 1994 until 1996. Hailing from Orange County, CA, Unashamed played more of an East Coast hardcore sound than West Coast, similar to the sound of bands like Warzone and 25 Ta Life (saw that comparison on their Wikipedia, pretty much the only bands I can even think of). Along with their very definitive hardcore sound, Unashamed brought extremely forthcoming spiritual lyrics, making them one of the forefathers of the "spirit-filled hardcore" sound. They only released two records, full length record, Silence, in 1994, and a full length, Reflection, in 1996. Both records are amazing, even if you're not into Christian hardcore. One defining cool thing Unashamed did was cover Rich Mullins' "Awesome God" on their second record, Reflection. It has been announced that Unashamed has reformed and will be playing and recording. One set date seems to be January 8th, next year, at the Chain Reaction in Anaheim, CA. Check out my previous post about it and their official MySpace page.

Unashamed reunion!

As of August 10th, it is official that Unashamed will be reuniting. According to their MySpace
Unashamed has reformed and will be playing shows soon and the lineup will be as follows:
"Bobby Canaday (Guitar)
Jeff Jacquay (Vocals)
Randy Baranosky (Drums, ex- Memphis Belle)
Dom Macaluso (Bass, ex-Throwdown)
Matt Mentley (Guitar, ex-Throwdown)"
I'm psyched, and you should be too. This year has been THE year for 90s hardcore reunions. I will be posting all updates regarding the reunion, but also check their MySpace for updates as well.
