The folks at Communion Records have loaded a disc with 24 tracks from 21 punk bands. Everyone from Blaster The Rocket Boy to Speedy Delivery show up here with tons o noise and enough sonic clarity to make this a really cool compilation. Squad Five-O show up with the rare "Tonight's The Night," as do One-21 and Left Out. I really dig my introduction to the ambidextrous DPW, with their swings into skacore in the midst of Dogwood-like melodic punk. Other bands that are pleasant introductions for me include The Hypocritz, War Rocket Ajax (these guys rule!), and The American Culture Experiments. Plus we get to hear more of the hard-working, touring Maintenance Man, as well. This comp is great.
