Encounter might also refer to a radio series produced by the state broadcaster Voice of America that is available via podcast. Encounter was an emo/hardcore band from Cherry Hill, NJ. They released a 4-Song Demo in 1990, A 7" entitled Lost on Redemption (which was co-ran by Jason Jordan, the singer) in 1991, a split 7" with crivits entitled Live in Belgium, and a split 7" with Blindfold in 1994. They appeared on three compilations; the No Exit, No Return 7" (1991), the Voice of The Voiceless 12" (1991), and the Horizon Hardcore Compilation 7" (1992). They toured Europe in the summer of 1991, and broke up shortly after. Joel sang/played guitar for Rain Still Falls, and was in Flagman for a short time. He also did a band with Josh Trustkill in 93/94 called Campfire. They had another band in 91/92 called Reveal, in which Joel played drums and Jason was on guitar. Jason is head of A&R for Hollywood records now. Here's a review from Middle Aged Youth: Encounter - Lost Here's yet another example of a great band dropping one phenomenal record and proceeding to drop off the face of the earth. Encounter were a Straight Edge Hardcore band from New Jersey that hit the scene at a time when the massive SE boom of the mid-late 80s was collapsing on itself and all of the old bands were either going post-Hardcore or dropping out of the scene altogether. The "Lost" 7" was released on Redemption Records in 1991, containing 4 songs that were recorded at the infamous Don Fury Studios N
