You may have heard FRONT LINE on the glorious 2nd installment of MASTER TAPE (find the quintessential volume one here) – and you know that this band overshadowed the other (very good) bands in terms ofspeed and punch by miles.
Finally, the complete 1982 10-song demo (from which the comp tracks were taken) has been released. And it fucking rules. Simple as that. When Hardcore was a force like music had seen none before. And lyrics like these to boot:
«Spit, fight, curse, kick
Busted bottles, flyling bricks
Spurs, leather, boots, chains
Broken bones, friends in pain
Aggression is a part of me
A cure for life’s monotony». (from «The red Hour»)
Fuckshitupism!
Apparantly only 300 were made of this, so order your copy today!
Comes with lyric sheet, sticker and a digital download (from which I took these three songs). You can order it from Grave Mistake or other distributors.

Ordered it from Crucial Response in germany. Yeah, it fucking rules. The sound is a bit flat, I think (haven’t compared it yet, but I somehow believe the Master Tape tracks sounded crunchier). That’s the kind of Hardcore I will never get tried of. Maybe because not so many bands managed to get it done in such brilliance.

This is pretty damn wild – pure Boston Not LA era Gang Green imho – damn impressive! Does it matter that it hasn’t seen light of day for all these years? Kind of…maybe I’m a completist snob, but if it didn’t make the cut back then well so be it…sometimes the great stuff never came to light…I kinda like that it didn’t…does it deserve release? – yes! As a limited edition of 300 so it only become a treasured item by an elite few? hmmm….methinks maybe not…

On the other hand, 300 copies might get physically pressed (and, obviously hardly sell), while the music is out there digitally.

There are 1000 copies of this (two pressings of 500).
