STORM FACTION

I've got a tape of roughs from the unreleased Here In Our Hearts session from INTERNAL AUTONOMY, and there are more rough mixes from a band listed as STORM FACTION tacked onto the end. Never heard of 'em, and can't find any information about them, but they surely sound like a bare knuckled pisstake of an ignorant UK Oi! band, and I kinda love it. Railing against PC punks with a half drunk exaggerated accent, all while the band decks out full throated ragers like "Runnin' Outta Time" and "Weak Link" (I ain't into politics!). A freaked out "Anarchoi Dub Stylee" (later followed up by the slightly longer "More Anarchoi! Dub Stylee," naturally) and even rougher reference mixes of two cuts that appear to be veering in a more UKHC (say Scrap Metal, perhaps) direction - just drum machine and vocals on these but that's no reason to not share a screamer like "Come Uppance Of The Macho Male," right? My thoughts exactly.  So at the end of a year full of frustration and loss and questions and distrust, I'll tack on a little mystery.
