“Within the early to mid-Nineteen Nineties, the metallic hardcore subgenre— at the least as we all know it in the present day— was simply starting to take form. Our bands had been uncooked, chaotic, and exhausting to understand with out seeing them reside. The sound did not match simply into current scenes, and because of this, we had been typically missed by press, labels, and promoters. Out of necessity, we carved out our personal areas: basements, rented halls, wherever we may collect. And in these hidden corners, new scenes quietly started to develop. Whereas bands had been energetic within the Tri-State space, New York Metropolis itself remained a difficult place for our subgenre to interrupt into.

“Wealthy Corridor modified that.

“Whereas digging by means of an outdated storage bin, I got here throughout a stack of cassettes. Sitting proper on prime was one specifically, it felt as if the universe positioned it there to be seen. It was a replica of our first present at CBGBs on November 17, 1996— Converge on one aspect, Coalesce on the opposite. That present was one in all my first actual interactions with Wealthy. For me, it symbolized one thing a lot bigger than music. It marked the start of a lot that I maintain pricey— issues that will by no means have been attainable with out him.

“I hoped the recording was nonetheless intact sufficient to launch in tribute to Wealthy and his household.

“I shortly reached out to Sean Ingram of Coalesce, explaining my discovering and intention, and he excitedly gave his full assist for the mission. Shortly after, I despatched the tape to Zach at GodCity to be digitized. Weeks later, we bought phrase that it had been efficiently salvaged.

“Collectively, Converge and Coalesce are releasing the recording as a tribute to Wealthy Corridor–Our buddy and supporter who helped convey our music to New York Metropolis within the earliest days. His impression on the underground music neighborhood was profound and we are going to always remember him and what he did for us.
