This is another good punk / hardcore comp from Thrasher in a long long history of Thrasher comp. Its impossible to compare this to the original “Skate Rock” comps of the early 80’s with bands like Drunk Injuns, Free Beer, The Big Boys, and McRad, but its definitly got some good tracks on it (Only Crime, Die Hunns). Plus, the DVD that should come with this has a great live show video from Turbonegro.
AWESOME
