Youth Of TodayYouth of Today was a seminal American hardcore punk band, often credited for reviving the straight edge scene in the mid to late 1980s. They formed in Conneticut in 1985, though they made their mark after moving to New York. They broke up in 1990. Albums such as We're Not In This Alone, Break Down The Walls and Can't Close My Eyes defined an attitude and an outlook for thousands of hardcore fans around the world. The band's frontman Ray Cappo was well known for being an outspoken Hare Krishna and the co-founder of Revelation Records. After Youth of Today, Cappo would later form the more melodic Shelter and Better Than A Thousand. The bands guitarist Porcell (John Porcelly) also played in some other well known straight edge bands, including Shelter. Youth Of Today have been an inspiration for numerous bands both musically and lyrically. Their style of hardcore punk is sometimes labeled youth crew hardcore. See also External link
