As Tradition Dies Slowly

Late '90s-era Florida hardcore outfit MORNING AGAIN released their only fulllength album As Tradition Dies Slowly in 1998. The band was originally started three years prior by former members of hardcore punk band CULTURE, John Wylie, Damien Moyal, and Louie Long. During the length of their existence, band members would rotate out and in with bands like CULTURE, OUTCAST, and BIRD OF ILL OMEN. As part of the vegan straight-edge movement, MORNING AGAIN incorporated melodies into their metallic hardcore sound. Often described as a hardcore version of SLAYER, As Tradition Dies Slowly is one of the heavier metalcore albums to come out at the time.
