86 Mentality - Final Exit CD/7"

86 Mentality are probably one of my favourite bands, at least in recent years, and this Final Exit 7"/CD is the ultimate mark on their existence. Six tracks of British Oi inspired hardcore punk (with an extra track, and six live songs from a live show in Lintfabriek, Belgium) sits on this record so brilliantly.

It's catchy in its own right, and it really is fucking awesome. Included are riffs that are so powerful they just make you want to pick up your guitar and throw yourself around your bedroom. I've been there. Grave Mistake and Deranged are probably putting out some of the best records in hardcore right now, and long may it continue. YEAH.
