+ printed inner sleeve. Engineered by Wharton Tiers. CD reissue has 4 bonus tracks.

Experimental hardcore from NYC; rough, rhythmic, mid-tempo stuff with a gloomy new school edge à la Rorschach or Born Against, but some songs also have Sonic Youth-style guitar sounds. Quite powerful, but without the intensity of the mentioned hardcore bands, or Sonic Youth's ingenuity. Still OK. [6]

Experimenteller Hardcore aus New York; rhythmische, mittelschnelle Musik mit düsterer New-School-Kante à la Rorschach oder Born Against, hin und wieder auch mit Sonic-Youth-mäßigen Gitarren. Hat Power, aber nicht die Intensität der genannten HC-Bands oder die Genialität von Sonic Youth. Trotzdem OK.
