EARTH CRISIS Neutralize The Threat (2016) Vinyl

Earth Crisis did not ask for your permission, and they were not interested in a debate. Since their Syracuse emergence in the early nineties, they have been one of hardcore punk's most uncompromising acts, and Neutralize the Threat, originally released in 2011 and repressed here in 2016, is exactly what the title suggests.

This is metallic hardcore with a political edge that never softened even when the genre around them was drifting toward something more palatable. Earth Crisis have always operated in the intersection of straight-edge ethics, metal heaviness, and genuine fury, and this record is a document of that position held without apology. If you got into punk and alternative music because you wanted something with actual stakes, this belongs in your collection. A cornerstone of the underground, full stop.
