On this episode of The Hardcore Therapist, I had the pleasure to speak to Patrick Kitzel is the founder of Reaper Records—a label that defined a generation with landmark releases from bands like Trapped Under Ice, Terror, Backtrack, Turnstile, and more. While Reaper’s legacy is firmly cemented in hardcore history, Patrick hasn’t slowed down one bit. He’s now channeling his passion for underground culture into Tribal Publishing, a platform that continues to preserve and celebrate hardcore’s DIY roots.

His latest work includes Cut & Paste—The American Hardcore Fanzine Book, a 336-page deep dive into the zine culture that helped shape the American hardcore scene, featuring over 400 fanzines and contributions from iconic voices like Al Quint, Mike Gitter, and Porcell. And just ahead is the second edition of Collected Obsession!, spotlighting over 400 vintage hardcore t-shirts from the collection of Desperate Measures' Ryan Bannahan. With books like these, Kitzel is documenting the scene with the same intensity and authenticity he brought to Reaper.

In 2019, Porter Porter Ben Porter began cutting his teeth in music as a bassist for the hardcore band, Tenfold, in 1996. Shortly after, the need to explore music led to a short stent playing drums in the band, Blue Minus, with his college mate, Scott Mathews. Although the band was short lived, the connection with Scott blossomed into yet another band. They formed the band Serus Victoria in 2002. Five years and two albums later, the band split when Ben relocated to Beaverton, Oregon, where he began exploring writing on his own. Now, after a 7 year hiatus (mainly due to raising 2 kids), he's back and creating again. This time, with his new band, The LP Experiment, he and his bandmate, Nick Lind, go forth to create and explore new heights in their music with their upcoming album entitled "The Astronaut's Dilemma" and the EP "Life and Everything In Between."
