It's funny how someone actually looked long and hard for this when mine was given to me like "Here - have this record!" and I was like "Cool - thanks!" and I still haven't listened to it. But I was a room-mate to label owner AND DJ Anonymous for a year and those be the perks folks. I really do not consider myself a fan of Midwest hardcore and could really take or leave the music on this comp, but I gots to represent, yo! All the artists are friends and acquaintances and they know my feelings of the music contained on it. I would have to say the shining moment on here for me is the Anonymous track. I was there for much of its inception and really enjoyed the humor in it. I will have to play mine once because by now I'm sure I'll have a greater respect for what I'm hearing. At the time however, I just wasn't feeling the "hardcore". I had that discussion with all Crippled Children/Distort/Addict personnel and they could respect that. I just happen to like cleaner, more dancable techno - preferably from about 1992/'93. Don't let me discourage you, though - If you want HARDCORE, this is it!

Four tracks courtesy of Anonymous, Abelcain, Bombardier and the ubiquitous Venetian Snares. Pick of the record is Up In The Sky by Anonymous which features Andy Kaufman talking high holy shit about Jerry The King Lawler. Hey Jerry, don't you think that bit where you take the strap down on your singlet and punch your opponent in the head is getting old?

Hehe, kind of suprised to this here. I'm the one who thought of the name. I used to be a roommate of the label owner. Good release i think. Concrete Dandylions is the best track, powerfull! If you can find this record, i suggest you buy it. PUNK!
