Warzone's first single, and the first release on Revelation. Powerful NYHC/Oi core with lots of anger, but the production is kind of weak. OK. [6]  

Kraftvoller NY HC mit miesem Sound. Hat musikalisch noch nicht die Energie der LP, ist aber dafür ideologisch noch nicht so… äh… eindeutig (obwohl natürlich die üblichen US-Skinhead-Sprüchlein fallen). Ganz ordentlich.

Tracks: war between races / always - a friend for life / will you ever come back // take a stand / wound up / under 18 / we’re the crew
