This seven song banger comes courtesy of LA peace punk/anarcho crust/activist rockers ANOTHER DESTRUCTIVE SYSTEM circa 1986. Super heavy CONFLICT influence with a raw delivery...nothing to complain about here. Vocalist Mark reformed A.D.S. in 2005 and they played around Southern California until '09 when they hung it up once again...new recorded material from the second incarnation is certainly cleaner, but lacks the power of this demo and the one that followed. A shame this band never put out records, as I'm sure they would be considered the top of the American anarcho heap.

I definitely think they made the mistake of reforming so many times (maybe just 2 total?), but this 80s ADS is great! They were initially called Another Imminent Destructive System but didn't wana use AIDS as an acronym. There's a cool video of em playing in the mid-90's when D.I.R.T. came out to tour. It was made into a video documenting an old anarchist center here in Los Angeles.
A.D.S. did record songs for a mini-album to be released on Mortarhate but for some reason it never happened. Remember the add in MRR which even featured the album artwork.
yeah i agree they shouldnt have reformed cause it just left a sour taste in my mouth after seeing em but this tape is really good
Recorded in 1986 in Los Angeles

Sorry - this one is buried in a box, and the files are on a defunct hard drive. Maybe another day...just not this day.
