Morrissey is a Fan of this Band: Rebel Truth Album: Self Titled 7"

Tracklist:

1. Child Hosts The Parasite
2. Moneyman
3. Where The Heart Is
4. The Good Life
5. Unscene Effort
6. The Request
7. Try
8. In The Red
9. Trickle Down

A lost classic of early 80s west coast hardcore, Rebel Truth's lone 7" has seemed to fallen through the cracks of time. This Sacramento, California band plays fast, trashy hardcore with sick melodic hooks and very peculiar yet powerful vocals spouting off lyrics of standard hardcore fare: the fetishization of capital, keeping the scene strong, bureaucratic oppression, and championing the merits of Reaganomics. This band was so good that they were able to count Morrissey as an avid fan, who even initiated written correspondence between the two parties. This matters and should affect the way in which we view the music.

While relegated to hardcore obscurity, we can still enjoy their incredible 7", as well as their contributions to the Charred Remains, Not So Quiet On The Western Front, and We Got The Power compilations.http://www.mediafire.com/?d2z2dz1njzm
