Fasedown kick off this hardcore punk (& some emo) compilation (saved from sampler status by the inclusion of non-Rescue related bands) proper, pummeling down a (figurative) door with "Abolished." Headnoise is next with "Heads Like Humans," doing what they do with sass and frass. Onceblind do a ZAO intro to "Loyalty," and then transition into a pounding cymbal-fest. 238 mellow things out for a bit, and then Figure Four resume the beating with "Loyalty." From there we are slapped around by bands like Overcome, Sagoh, xDISCIPLEx AD, Redeem, P.O.D., etc. Good collection of the hard underground.

Some of the songs were solid, but most of the bands were just pitiful. The upside was tunes by bands like Fasedown, P.O.D., Onceblind, Figure Four, and Point of Recognition. The downside was bands like Ancient of Days, Headnoise and Twothirtyeight.

I really do have great appreciation for most all of their bands. Victory in Christ is the next compilation being offered, this one focusing on 3:16 Records artists. The problem here is most of the songs are already released on the bands' current albums. Granted you…
