Album Notes & Community Reviews

Following a major lineup change that introduced Peter Cortner on vocals, the Washington D.C. hardcore pioneers shifted decisively away from pure aggression. 'Wig Out at Denko's' is a deeply emotional, highly melodic affair, utilizing Brian Baker's shimmering guitar arpeggios to help establish the definitive blueprint for early emocore.
