Warzone - The Sound Of Revolution


It was one of crucial release from NYHC legendary - Warzone, this Sound Of Revolution CD was released under Victory Records in 1996. Raybeez ( RIP ), was regarded as the nicest skinhead in New York (a living contrast to the unfair stereotype of the violent or neo-Nazi skin) as a longtime security man at local theaters like The Ritz and frontman for this group. He always practiced what he preached in Warzone, whose music from beginning to this (presumed) end was always in the '81-'84 original Dischord hardcore thrash sound (Minor Threat, S.O.A., Scream, Youth Brigade, GIs, etc.), all bands Ray supported in those older days. Consist of 11 tracks, singalong choruses and positivity radiate from this release with the help of master production by Dr. Know of the Bad Brains. Great final effort by one of NYHC greatest. As fast and energetic as ever. Raybeez delivers positive attidude and grate messeges on his poetic style lyrics. Fast, catchy, melodic and tons of sing alongs. This release finds Warzone fusing their hardcore rage with their street punk roots. An urgent and enlivening release.
