Colin and Bo share their personal picks for perfect EPs and 7"s, which inarguably play a more pivotal role in hardcore/punk music than any other genre. A lost art from mostly the pre-streaming era, sometimes there's no better way to present a band's music than an EP. It's a crowded field full of unbelievable releases by bands that changed the landscape of hardcore forever, but we did our best at picking the EPs that shaped our respective personal tastes the most.
