Back-Cover, V.A.: “New York City Hardcore – The Way It Is”, Revelation Records, 1988

Erklärung zur Berücksichtigung von YDL

“The main reason we decided to put out the compilation was to capture the entire feeling of what`s going on in our scene today and document it on vinyl so the rest of the world will hear about it and we will never forget it. Revelation wanted to show the entire scope of the movement which is why the bands on this record differ greatly in personal views, politics, etc. But even with all these differences, there`s a bond which brings us all together. I`d say that nearly all of the performers on this album are friends or at least know each other pretty well. … Benath all the surface problems of bands competition, gossip, and scene politics.”
