Then the pace sharpens to a blur,
with the intense zoomfest of those
Italian Madmen Negazoine. On
their second Ep release, the speed
sharply rushed beyond the thrash
barrage and this five songer ignites
with wild uncontrolable mayhem.

A band whose been seeing a lot of
activity lately is the rebirth of Social
Unrest, the Hayward based group
who made the hardcore world take
notice with their Rat in a Maze 12"
Now Social Unrest have released a
fitteen song Lp entitled SU 2000
featuring some new members and
introducing vocalist Jason who
spurts out the lyrics with a unique
sharp character that holds a swift
note. Potant musical punches that
work in different melodies with crafty
arrangements. A wide variety of
tempos ranging from fast paced whi
nin's to creativo instrumentals is the
highlight of this Social Unrest black
slab that gives one the feeling,
sound wise, of the classic Adoles-
cents Lp. Quality recording beefs us
this effort as the sound drives that
head dashing appeal to the nervous
system. For a hardcore record, this
has a lot of harmonies, melodies
and enjoyable instrumentation, in its
mythms as well as its approach,
something that a lot of records lack
hopefully Social Unrest will hit the
audience they are after with this 3rd
release, On Libertine Records.
Here it be, the latest platter of
Gang Green, but a new band with a
different sound. Chris Doherty is still
on vox and guitar, though, this time
the voice is much raspier with a thin
sound. Chuck Stphen (ex-Freeze)
now wooing out those lavish metallic
licks which whine in a speedy frenzy
as his guitar playing adds a bit of dif-
ference to the previous Gang Green
sound. The A-side is entitled Skate
To Hell which comes off as a.
hardcore attempt at AC/DC, back to
the roots you might say for these
guys. A good dose of boarding
mania for the ears of those thrusting
bangers. B flipside is Alcohol which
continues in the same vein of beaty
riffa in a rocky mold. This is definitely
a different Gang Green, so much
that you can tell the two apart, so
cast your vote old or new. On
Taang Records.
