SOCIETY'S GRUDGE


Deadly Winnipeg, MB hardcore, circa 1983. Everything is here - blatant SoCal influence with a guitar in line with D. Boon and Joe Jack with a brilliant Dez rasp on the vocals that shines on blunt adolescent brilliance like "I don't care what you say // I'm gonna live my own way." Blast the popcorn bass as it rips into "Anti-Police Squad" and you'll realize that this is an unsung, N.O.T.A. by way of Group Sex caliber (North) American classic. Twelve slammers in eighteen minutes, "Prisoners Of The Suburbs" lays it back just a notch and is my personal go-to cut....until the hook drops in "Asylum" and I think maybe it's a tie (fortunately I don't have to decide). If anyone's holding, I need a copy of the insert.
