The early nineties and mid-nineties were a revolutionary period. A lot of American hardcore bands started to boom and the scene exploded once again. Bands like Biohazard, Sick Of It All, Madball, Pro-Pain and Cro-Mags grew and destroyed the European stages. It was at that time, that HARD RESISTANCE started out. After a while, European bands earned the respect they deserved. In fact, they established a true hardcore "Euro-scene" and European bands got dubbed "Euro-core bands" by international media and radio. Everyone was talking about it, everyone was into hardcore. Glorious days! Every now and then everything changes, if you like it or not. Hardcore began to lose its popularity and by the beginning of 2000 it had lost most of its followers. The European scene had collapsed. It had become a victim of its own success. In 2008 HARD RESISTANCE decided to play some reunion shows in Europe and almost 2 years later the guys started recording new material. It was a new era and the songs were harder than ever. Strength Records released their brand new album in 2012 and mini CD in 2013. Back on track! 1994 RETROSPECTIVE 2014 is not only a retrospective to this awesome period, but also to all the great "Euro-core bands" and of course to the fans.
