This band never gets mentioned anywhere and I don't know why. They released a lot of quality tunes. I'm a big fan and have been listening to them for the last couple of hours.

the split they did with Warzone is great,the best songs they ever did IMO.....and that is also my favorite Warzone release too.

The split with Warzone was amazing. They have a greatest hits deal called "Nothing Ever Dies." All of their albums have a similar sound, so you can go with anything really.

First album I picked up was Cheaters and the Cheated. Good record.

Overrated. I picked up the old 7 inch years and years ago because of seeing them mentioned a lot, but they never did it for me. None of the later stuff sounded even as good as that 7 incher so I never understood their popularity.

Weird, I never thought of them as popular by any means.

I love their first 7 inch, but I also really liked the stuff after that. One of the reasons I liked them is they play straight up old school styled hardcore. No metal riffs, no wannabe death metal vocals, etc.

See, that's what bugs me. Straight up Old School is about the only Hard Core I really dig, but these guys have just always bored me. Even back when I listened to nothing but HC I thought they were incredibly bland. The only thing that has ever stood out to me about them is the odd fact that absolutely NOTHING about them stands out.

That surprises me. You were one person on here I figured might be into them. To each their own I guess.

agreed perfect way to say it and always how i felt about them they did a reunion at a superbowl in 89 i think it was..i wish i still had that shirt.... but they were one of the nyhc originals gotta give em that and also another NYHC band really from NJ or a lot of members from New Jersey at least originally.
