This time released on Jack Kelly's own record company Patriot Records (also released Bruisers & Forced reality).
Oh dear lord where whould i start with this one i mean patriotism is one thing but now their just trying to piss people off. If your sensitive about nationalism and conservative views then stay away from most of the tracks (Drop the bombs, In the right, Dedicated & Proud strong and free) which by the way are the best tracks on the LP.
This album brought them a lot of heat from many promotors and fans but also brought in a whole new crowd to the Boston hardcore scene. Slapshot being one of the biggest HC bands out there it takes a whole lot of guts to say what you feel like on an album like this.
10/10 for the songs and 10/10 for the backbone to sing them.
10/10

SvaraRaderaok. but thats not contibuting.
SvaraRaderaThis will always be one of my favorite Oi records of all time—every song is perfect.
SvaraRaderaAnd yeah, the second record is absolutely terrible.
SvaraRaderaSpeaking of Forced Reality, why don't you do a write-up on them? One of my fave US oi! acts.
SvaraRaderadefinitely would like to see a Forced Reality section!!!
