Album Notes & Community Reviews

Pioneering the aggressive, highly principled 'youth crew' subculture, this debut revitalized the flagging New York Hardcore scene. The blistering, metallic-tinged punk tracks vehemently championed straight-edge philosophy, animal rights, and positive social action against the backdrop of 1980s urban decay.
