Reviews:

This is probably one of my favorite punk records just for the COH side. Jonathin Christ's emotive delivery and heavy California accent make the vocals really stand out, but the band is no slouch. I hear touches of the Avengers mixed with Cali hardcore in the treble-heavy guitar sound (that East Bay sound already evolving). They bust out some fast and furious hardcore songs like "Fight or Die" and "People's Revolution," but really destroy with the more mid-tempo punk stuff like "Code of Honor" or my favorite song "Stolen Faith." That song is the perfect mesh of Mike's expressive guitar and Jonathin's passionate vocals and heartfelt political lyrics. The lyrics are amazing, so earnest that many would call them cheesy but I think they're perfect. I'd comment on the other side but I never listen to it because it just can't compare to the amazing COH. Unfortunately Jonathin's experiments with spoken vocals and gothy poetry got the better of this band before their full length. No need to track that one down.
