Top notch NYHC...
After making inroads into metal / hardcore crossover with Cause for Alarm, Agnostic Front struck the perfect balance with this album. In my opinion, this release captures the best and most unique aspects of Agnostic Front's groundbreaking sound. You can certainly detect metal influences, but that only serves to toughen and intensify Agnostic Front's In-Your-Face style which would define NYHC. Great release: forceful, relevant, original, uncompromising. A great introduction to AF.
Highlights: "Liberty and Justice," "Strength," "Anthem," "Hypocricy," and an awesome cover of Iron Cross' "Crucified. " .


It's not metal by a long shot...
. . it's fast, tight, intense and aggressive hardcore. Yes, there's some double bass in Will Shepler's superb drumming and some squiggly guitar solos but those alone do not a metal record make, and the lyrics are much more intelligent and better written than most metal bands. Probably Miret's angriest vocal performance, too. Of course Maximum Rock and Roll wrote this off as metal and as lunkheaded right wing skinhead music, what with the Iron Cross cover of "Crucified" and the Pledge of Allegiance intro, well they were completely wrong about AF in the mid-eighties and they were all wet about this record also. Every track rips, so do yourself a favor and get this, enjoy it and read the lyrics too. Soundwise it's a little muddy and it definitely deserves a top-notch remastering and reissue.


Change aint bad,in some respects..
Its got a more thrash approach to it,but its still good. FRom what I`ve heard,this album,is yes,different,but that doesnt make it bad. It may not be the exact same thing as their first albums,but atleast its not like they made a bad album in the sense of a more metal approach and such,like Cro-mags and some of the suicidal tendencies albums did. I still agree though that their earlier stuff Rules!.


It's ok, but not the true A.F.
Too metal for my taste and af is about hardcore. Sorry fellas, some of you say that this is the real af, nah. Only 4 guys to me are the real af. . . stigma, miret, kabula, colletti. . . for new people getting into af, stick with the victim in pain, cause for alarm, and something's gotta give. . . .


More Hardcore for your taste!
Agnostic Front brings awsome hardcore from the 80's! More Hardcore that kicks!!! Buy this cd, for your hardcore collection.
