MCRAD: ABSENCE OF SANITY
Us old guys with bad knees remember McRad from back in the days when skate videos were events just because they came out, not because some publicist was hyping them with a YouTube ad campaign. The songs heard in those videos were new pieces of ear candy that were soon blasting on a sticker-covered boom box at the local ramp. That was back when Skate Rock belonged to skaters, and we had the best secret in the world. McRad was one of those secrets.
McRad was in a few of Powell Peralta’s
classic vids—Public Domain, Ban This and Propaganda—bringing an energetic sound based in hardcore and punk to the post-Bones Brigade team. The song “Weakness” was the soundtrack to the world’s introduction to Ray Barbee in Public Domain, while McRad was also fast and loose enough to keep up with Tommy Guerrero as he destroyed the hills of SF. Coming out of Philly in 1983, McRad released a classic hardcore record, Absence of Sanity.

DEVOLA: PLAYING THE GAME OF REVENGE AND WINNING EVERY TIME
I went to school with these cats @ SUNY New Paltz. This is brutal, spastic stuff here. Devola play that crazy grindcore/powerviolence sound, but do it with a bit of noisy artsyness while they comment on social and politcal issues of importance. Think Brutal Truth, Monster X, and Deadguy. Mike G. watched Seinfeld for months to get the audio at the end of the album.
track list:
1. 238/219
2. Red Light Thought
3. The Prozac Equation
4. This One Hurts
5. Exit Wounds
6. The Ultimate Plan
7. True Crime
8. Never to be Forgotten
9. Walking on Eggshells
10. Remembering Insignificance
11. Real Men Don't Wear White Hats
12. Well-Oiled Machine
13, Almost Negated
14. For A Cause
15 Pigeon Fight
