It feels that records from straight forward hardcore bands have been a bit of a rarity this year... or maybe it's just me and I'm that out of touch. Either way, when records like the new Statement of Pride come along, I'm gonna jump on it.
Statement Of Pride play that style of straight edge hardcore that I cannot ignore. Release that shit on Youngblood Records, I'll be there ordering multiple copies. I really liked what I'd heard from the band a couple of years ago, so I'm very happy to see that they had more to give. This 12 inch features four new songs, plus the four songs from the Out Of The Ashes EP from 2022 that never saw a vinyl release. I don't think that Youngblood carries the weight that it once did, but I hope that it is enough to put this band on kids radar because this record is so good.
100 pressed on clear vinyl, and 300 on green. I'd also like to get my hands on the two limited covers that are floating around for this record. Nothing makes me want to collect records like good straight edge bands.
Weird looking cover for a YB release. I intended to order this but haven't got around to it yet for some reason.
