Album Notes & Community Reviews

Exploding out of the Queens underground, this debut full-length set a new standard for New York hardcore. The Koller brothers drive the record with relentless, metallic breakdowns and anthemic gang-vocal choruses that heavily emphasize scene unity and working-class frustration. It remains a foundational text for the 1990s metalcore and beatdown subgenres.
