Blush never lets any participant's testimony -including his own- devolve into self-serving autobiography. That's why he created a juicier, more satisfying record of this particular cultural moment than professional critics or academics ever could.

Village Voice

Your presentation was fantastic and really got the audience thinking about the history of American Hardcore. The panelists you selected were perfect—Dave provided great insight from the artists’ point of view and Laura had great thoughts about being in the crowd and part of the scene.
