Album Notes & Community Reviews

'Apocalypse 91...The Enemy Strikes Black' finds Public Enemy refining their chaotic Bomb Squad production into a slightly more streamlined but no less furious hip-hop assault. Chuck D delivers intensely angry, highly conscious political protest verses over noisy, aggressive, and incredibly energetic sampling.
