"American Hardcore" acknowledges Milwaukee
"American Hardcore" arrives in Milwaukee soon and there was an advance screening at the Downer Theatre. Although the Midwest hardcore scene gets about five minutes of coverage, Milwaukee's Dan Kubinski -- of Die Kreuzen and Decapitado -- is featured in a pair of interview snippets and a quick burst of live D.K. coverage.
