taang. 2 / 2 tracks / 1984

RI: D: ?. ? / 1992 (bootleg)

900 made, 5 different sleeves: 100 made with Hitler cover, unknown number of the others, but #1 and #2 seem to be the most common ones (#2 is available with and without the “vocalist of Negative FX” note). Two 10” acetates. Test pressing with alternate sleeve. Bootleg has a slightly different sleeve; 600 boots made on yellow vinyl, 60 on multicolored vinyl. Taang webpage says that this was initially planned as a 5 track 10”.

A Boston classic; not as fast and crazy as the XClaim stuff, more in a mid-tempo hardcore vein that also has some melodic Oi punk elements. Great rough vocals by Choke (ex-Negative FX, later in Slapshot). Powerful and intense. [8]  

2 kürzere Tracks, die zwar nicht schnell, aber dafür ultraderb sind, nicht zuletzt wegen der herrlichen Stimme von Choke (ex-Negative FX, später Slap Shot), die mit zum kratzigsten gehört, was die Szene zu bieten hat. Irgendwie mogeln die Jungs aber doch noch ein paar Melodien dazu. Für Slapshot-Fans.
