3.0 out of 5 stars I don't know man, January 8, 2000

By 

Derek Stevie (canada) - See all my reviews

This review is from: One Voice (Audio CD)

Don't get me wrong from the star rating, I'm sure that this is a very good album, but I just couldn't handle it. I like the albums that AF made before this one, and the ones that they made after. Cause For Alarm is a classic, as is Something's Gotta Give, but this in-betweener is just not for me and it may or may not be for you. If Agnostic front appeals to you for their Street-hard metal characteristics, then you'll probably like this but if you're more into it for the hard-core punk then this album has a bit of that too but it is mostly laced in menacing metal. And I must explain myself again- by metal I don't mean Metallica-type garbage, it's still hardcore in the end. There are lots of wild guitar solos (courtesy of Matt Henderson, now in Madball with Roger Miret's little bro) which I don't really like. I don't find that they compliment the songs. But you may want to check it out anyways because it may be for you.

5.0 out of 5 stars one of the last true NY hardcore albums, April 8, 2005

By 

Self Induced (Drexel Hill, PA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: One Voice (Audio CD)

back in '92, this album came out right before A.F. broke up. they began injecting metal into their style to give their NY hardcore sound an even meaner edge. by the time this album came out, A.F. were regarded as pioneers and fathers of the NY hardcore scene from back in the day. the only other bands out there at the time that were accomplishing what A.F. were doing, were bands like Sick Of It All, Cro-Mags, and Murphy's Law. a few years after this album, they got back together and signed to Epitaph records in favor of a more street punk sound, which didn't go over well with the A.F. fans that loved their One Voice album. this is the album that Biohazard wishes they could've made back in the early 90's. One Voice is probably one of the best NY hardcore albums of the early 90's.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sharp as barbed wire!!!, December 10, 2003

This review is from: One Voice (Audio CD)

This is Agnostic Front at their most talented,agressive, soul intellectual and musically brilliant. If you like the happy, three chord punk-pop compositions of their latest albums, then this record is absolutely not for you. Recorded after Roger Miret was released from jail, Agnostic Front went to the studio and delivered an album so angry, so agressive and so in your face, that is simply beyond words!. More crossover/metal oriented and with a more "new school" sound, sharp as razor guitar riffs that can cut through bone like butter, the guitar agression in this album is just something else. Not as progressive and rapid as Liberty and Justice for...but with more cleaner vocals and heavier distorted sound. The vocals on this are just amazing. Roger Miret delivered his most energetic, deep noted throat and inspirational reflective lyrics to date, with enough soul and inner repression to keep a WWF wrestler back against the ropes. His lyrics focus on his regrets for the embarrasing time he spended in jail, for his stupid mistakes, for the fool kid he was before entering those prison gates and becoming not only a man, but a victim. All his yourney is expressed in a very poetic and thought provoking lyrical confesion. This is a more in your face macho style hardcore/crossover and less street style hardcore punk, less melodic and happy but incredibly profaund, deep and energetic to get you dancing in anger as soon as you hear the opening chords of the first song battle cry!. The drumming is just fenomenal, great guitar solos, lotz of angry sing alongs and choruses, this album is just fantastic. So dare to take a yourney with AF at their most mature, intellectual and agressive, if you like real hardcore/crossover, do not let this album go away cuz is incredible!!!! if you like happy blink 182 crap...do not aproach! This is one of my all time hardcore favorites and the best hardcore album of the 90s.
cheers!
