The AdolescentsBlue Album

Orange County hardcore at full sprint, snarling guitars and gang-shout choruses that hit like a fist. "Kids of the Black Hole" stretches suburban boredom into a six-minute anthem, all churning riff and rising rage, while "Amoeba" is frantic and instantly hummable. Thirteen tracks recorded by teenagers who broke up four months later and never even toured it. One of the first hardcore records to reach the whole country, and still one of the best. Loud, fast, and built to last.
