I need to point out one thing at the start of this review. I am in no way going to comment on the political content of this release. I review music. I often steer completely clear of lyrics, anyway. When it comes to political messages, I do not take a stand in general. I don't want Music Street Journal to become a political site. We are a music site. So, with that out of the way, let me say that I am a big fan of D.O.A. and look forward to their new releases. This might be one of the strongest. Given some of the competition, that says a lot. This seems to embrace their hardcore roots a bit more firmly than some of the other recent releases have. If there's a complaint, it's that is very short (less than twenty minutes of music). Still, it's strong enough that it leaves the listener wanting more, so that's not necessarily a bad thing. As you might guess, a lot of this earns parental advisories (showcased by the edited title to one of the songs in the online version of Music Street Journal). I haven't listed them track by track, but will just go with a general warning for the whole set.

This review is available in book (paperback and hardcover) in Music Street Journal: 2020  Volume 3. More information and purchase links can be found at: garyhillauthor.com/Music-Street-Journal-2020.
