"Full Speed Ahead" CD (Rotten)
This takes me back to high school biology classes when I was listening to "Dealing With It" and "Crossover" instead of lectures about plant reproductive systems. To appreciate this record, it is absolutely essential to have a taste for rich, thick, meaty thrash with riffs as burly as weightlifters on Muscle Beach. It's heavy, pounding and crushing, and they're still political as fuck. The hell with my knee, I'm going to go skate.
