Socal's first authentic "Crasher Crust" band (a little punkier though). Solid stuff and well emulated (Sweden, Japan, Finland, pick all the "cool" countries), the band had enthusiasm and talent (to a degree). A few of the mid-paced trax have a classic street punk vibe, which may be an indicator of their probable roots (ur, street punk seems to be "the" gateway genre for today's crusties), though it's well composed and bar-anthemy enough. Mostly, this is speed and fuzz in all the right places (4-track recording too!). Surprisingly long demo, clocking in at 12 songs in 20 minutes. Wish they woulda stuck it out.
