Definately a classic. I believe this first came out in 1983, and was originally a 7" EP. This recording is just a non-stop pummeling of fast, blazing Hardcore tunes. Most of the guitar riffs are pretty simple and straight forward, and that style is perfect for these short, fast, and in your face tunes.

Remember when POISON IDEA was awesome? No need to. Just put this on. Or Record Collectors are Pretensious A.holes 12", now, thankfully, a CD.

It's the hardcore from Portland that punx back in the day knew to be the real thing. Never did see 'em live. But it's clear that after 2 or 3 records they began to go slowly down hill until it just wasn't fun anymore (Dutch release, ugh).

However, this item is a pure gem. Real hardcore punk rock with all the power and beauty you would expect from high quality, actual punk rock. Hardcore baby. [e-mail]
