Core was an American stoner rock band from New Jersey, active in the late 1990s.

History

[edit]

Core debuted with their first album, Revival, in 1996 on Atlantic Records.[2] The album was produced by Billy Anderson and supported by tours with Fu Manchu, Clutch and Orange 9mm.[3] Despite this publicity, the album suffered due to limited promotion.[3] The band bounced back in 1999 with their follow up, The Hustle Is On on MIA Records and Tee Pee Records.[4] It features artwork by Arik Roper. The album was supported by a tour entitled "Riff Rock Railroad", which also featured Atomic Bitchwax and Nebula.[3]

In addition to the two albums, Core was also featured on the MeteorCity Records compilation Welcome to Meteor City, an album that showcased numerous Kyuss-like bands and helped establish MeteorCity. They also contributed "Soul Shaker" (a cover of Aerosmith's "Soul Saver") to the Small Stone Records tribute compilation Right in the Nuts.
