Just as good as anything from the late 80s-early 90s. These guys are on par with Gorilla Biscuits and Youth Of Today and the like. They aren't widely known, which kinda sucks. But this discog does not disappoint. Some really fast songs, some slower, but all in all it kicks ass. There is the token live recording at the end of the CD which most bands from the New England area include in their retrospectives.

If you claim you're straight edge, then you must pick up this release from Wide Awake. I don't think there is a better band in the late 80's with the exception of Bold. The songs Last Straw and False Pride will just knock all you hardcore kids on your ass, it's that good. I also don't recall any bands that get as fast as these guys do in some parts of their songs. I tried reading along with the lyrics during some of those moments and you just can't keep up with him. It's definately an essential purchase for all who are straight edge or just a fan of fast old school hardcore.

Very good sXe hardcore band. Nothing ground breaking, but if you like Youth Of Today, Unit Pride, Up Front, and maybe even Minor Threat then I'm sure you'll have no problem listening to this CD. I say for 10 bux this CD is worth it with all the live songs and what not.

Classic Youth Crew hardcore. Raise your finger to the sky and enjoy! If you like the roots of hardcore (pre-metal, like Youth of Today, Gorilla Biscuits, Chain of Strength, and Judge) you will love this. Loud and proud, this is good hardcore!
