Description
Longevity is rarely achieved in hardcore but SPINEs third LP, Races is a testament to a band as uncompromising and aggressive as they were over 10 years ago. In fact, Races may be the bands most aggressive output to date, presenting the bands usual blend of classic USHC and early west coast powerviolence at its most raw tipping the scale to the latter influence. Lyrically, the record grapples with the interplay of heritage and identify, family, and world outlook in the face of oppressive governments.
With Races, Kansas Citys Spine becomes the rare hardcore band with three notable LPs. They enter the ranks of bands like Gauze, Madball, Poison Idea, and Integrity, and further establish their legacy as one of the great aggressive bands of their era and of the Midwest.
