mystic records. mlp 33128 / 18 tracks / 1984
+ lyric / info sheet. Some copies came with a piece of “Police Line - Do Not Cross” tape.
The best Mystic compilation hands-down, great bands and music, mostly fast and powerful hardcore and punk songs dealing with cops & police brutality. Almost all of the tracks were exclusive at the time (except for Authorities, GI’s, Black Flag and Manifest Destiny), and many have never been reissued. Great. [8]
Die beste Mystic-Compilation, kein Wunder bei der Starbesetzung. Alles dreht sich um das Thema Cops, police brutality und Gummiknüppel. (KS) Großartiger Sampler, fast durchweg guter, kraftvoller Hardcore und Punk (von den Mentors mal abgesehen). Fast alle Tracks waren damals unveröffentlicht - und die meisten sind bis heute nicht auf anderen Platten aufgetaucht. Lohnt. (bj)
