Anti-System A Look at Life 12″
Throbbing, pounding mid-tempo guitar-driven anarcho-punk that occasionally lunges into fourth gear, or goes into metal second. Five long songs, lots of power as well as repetition. Good lyrics, as always.

Two tunes each from these British anarcho-punks. MORBID HUMOUR are more vocally oriented with sparser, slower instrumentation while ANTI-SYSTEM turns in two ripping classic UK thrashers. Good on both sides.
The second UK 1985 release to completely blow me away. This vinyl slab runs rampant with excessive energy, speed, and intensity. Lyrics are strong and abrasive with critical beliefs worked into each song structure. Has the continual power approach found on the ANTI-SECT LP, yet there are more speedcore traces here—fast, blistering chaos, raging with incredible might. Their 7″ was great, but this is ANTI-SYSTEM’s best yet. An “A” for music and ideas.
An insistent, demanding political thrash attack that seems to come from the heart. Releases like this remind me that high-quality stuff can still emerge from England. Get it today!
