+ lyric/photo sheet. There’s a cassette version, too. 'We Go The Edge' CD on Lost & Found (1996) compiles first and second LP.
1988 west coast straight edge attack; this is no posi core à la Insted, they have a more brutal and metallic approach like many NYHC bands of that era. Powerful and chunky hardcore, production is a bit muddy but still good. [7]
End-80er West-Coast-sXe-Sound; kein netter Posicore à la Insted, sondern wütend und hasserfüllt. Klingt insgesamt mehr nach den metallischen New-York-Bands dieser Ära als nach sonnigem California-Hardcore. Produktion ist etwas dumpf, abre trotzdem gut und kraftvoll.
