old glory records. ngr-4 / 12 tracks / 1993

+ lyric booklet.

Old Glory compilation; one half of the bands still play the classic straight edge/posi/NY-style, while the other half plays new school/emo/screamo. Notable tracks by Avail, Merel, Native Nod and Rorschach (cool King Crimson cover), but the rest is pretty good, too. Born Against have an unusal song here, just vocals and bass. Good compilation [7]

Sampler des Old-Glory-Labels; die eine Hälfte der Bands spielt noch den klassischen Straight Edge/Posi/NY-Core, während die andere bereits in Richtung New School/Emo/Screamo unterwegs ist. Gute Songs von Avail, Merel, Native Nod und Rorschach (nette King-Crimson-Coverversion), aber die anderen sind auch recht gut. Born Against haben den seltsamsten Song der LP, nur Stimme und Bass.

Tracks: Avail - sidewalk / Merel - newfound snide remark / Elizabeth Herz - easter island / Askance - the living / Puzzlehead - degenerated / Native Nod - back to mimsy // Rorschach - 21st century schizoid man / Groove - extension / Shadowman - written undefined / Iconoclast - eleventh hour / Greyhouse - ever-nearing joy / Born Against - lillian
