REVIEWS/DESCRIPTIONS:"The Netherlands' Seein' Red are back at it again with twelve more lightning fast hardcore songs complete with revolutionary political messages. New York's Judas Iscariot offer up eight songs on their side. They also play great hardcore with a political message, but they bring in a sort of emotive experimental flavor. the LP covers are different for the Mountain version which was released in the USA and the Coalition version which was released in the Netherlands (so collectors beware). Great Shit." - Kent McClard - Ebullition
"The Seeing Red side is Seeing Red at their best. Concise political lyrics, quick and punchy songs, lots of feeling and power. Though nothing can match seeing Seeinâ Red live, this record gets pretty close. The Judas side represents the most mature stuff theyâve released so far and is one of my favorite 20 minutes of recorded music in hardcore. Thereâs a heavy jazz influence and the music is far more innovative than on earlier records. The lyrics are also better (as if that was possible). The Judas Iscariot, had they stayed together, could have been one of the most influential bands in hardcore. This record is testament to that." - BEN, MTNCIA
