Comments
State of Alert were a short-lived band that launched the career of Henry Rollins. Their only release, No Policy, is a generic miniature (just 8 minutes) brand of Hardcore Punk as it could have been done only in 1981. Worth only for historical reasons.
The 4 dislikes are bootlickers
Henry era un niño
Nothing is better than a young Henry Rollins
yeah"!!! really a good job with the lyrics...thanks from south italy
Wow, I really like this EP. Sound is a lot more like Minor Threat than I expected, being more familiar with the demo. I can't believe I never heard this before wtf! I used to stare at this ep at bionic and now im like why didnt i just buy it back in the day? You know, back when you had to go record stores? What a trip. I fuckin feel old as shit now though. Fuck all you internet cunts.
StraightXEdge.What about BeerOEdge.....
fuking awesome
rollins is a legend no matter what band hes in, we must remember that if it wasn't for him and ian MacKaye that speed/thrash metal would probably still be called that but may not sound like early hardcore but refined musically
i can hear what agnostic front took from these guys, and SSD too.
awesome...
