Classic Canadian hardcore/punk from the late 70’s & early 80’s. Brilliantly merging the serious/confrontational aspects of punk with the sarcastic and fun. Fast, charged punk tunes with clear vocals. Overall killer stuff from a very underrated band.
(((((1)))))) Ripping, great chorus with plenty of good guitar & vocals.
((((2)))) (FCC “fucking” sung once) Steady tempo with a D.O.A.-like vibe. Everything’s not right in the Great White North. Still very appropriate song, considering recent events there.
((((3))))) TOO MANY FCCS - AVOID (Too bad ‘cause this is awesome!)
(((((4))))) TOO MANY FCCS – AVOID!
((((5)))) Strummy punk with a big chorus.
((((6)))) Silly, sludgey punk obnoxious. ** I’m not 100% if this might be a FCC considering the context.
((((((7))))) Excellent, catchy & infectious melodic punk number.
((((8)))) Another catchy, but mid-tempo rocker. Lots of good guitar work.
(((((9)))))) Straight up political punk, very basic riffing. A mix of D.O.A. & Angelic Upstarts
(((((10))))) Great opening riff & rough but direct vocals. Kinda of an Oi! but more “let’s go” instead of a “boots & braces” style. –Ragnar of Ravensfjord
