Synopsis

Album Description
'Dead Yuppies' (Epitaph) reaffirms that Agnostic Front as a band, still works like a musical razor blade. Regardless of their history, regardless that Vinny Stigma, a man of few words and no lack of a sense of humor claims, 'Man, I've been in hardcore sooooo long that I used to have to find a place to park my chariot,' the proof is simple - Agnostic Front's songs are still hard, cutting, strong musical hit and runs.

CD Reviews

3 1/2 stars actually ...

"Anyone who wants to buy the new Agnostic Front record will be pleased with their purchase as AF will give you exactly what you expect. For those awaiting a re-write of THEE classic AF record - 'Victim in Pain' - well, this is as close as the boys have come. Every song is raging, fast, 3 chords, with Miret's classic, indecipherable growl & plenty of old-school "gang" vocals all over the place. Yeah - it sounds like the guys could have written the whole record in one weekend - but it is definitely the best of the 3 "reunion" records. Those who have been fans of AF for almost 20 years now will know what to expect, and they'll love it. It will change no one's mind who's not a fan, though. The record cover is somewhat silly, and, in light of the 9/11 attack, a disclaimer sticker was put over the front cover. They're legends - if you're a fan of hardcore - you can't be without 'Victim in Pain', 'Cause for Alarm', or 'Liberty & Justice...'. This is a good addition to the legacy."

"Well, i debated weather or not to pick this one up. Good thing i did, or i would have shot myself if i had heard it later on and not owened it. It's bloody amazing. THIS is what hardcore punk should be like. Fast, intense, brutal and meaningful. This album strips away all that is inessential and packs in all that is missing from most hardcore and punk bands around today. I love the fact that in almost every song they incorporate speed-metal solos, minus the showmanship that deflates it's power. It's just nuts. I've been waiting for awhile for an album like this to be made. The punk/hardcore scene seems to be overridden with either pop/skate-punk bands or death-metal hardcore type bands that forget what hardcore used to sound like when it was a vital force. Not that i have a problem with those other kinds of bands, but it seems like thats all that is being made these days. Rancid, Propagandhi and F-minus have all made albums within the last year that predicted this record, but this one outdoes them all. It's time that punk once again became dangerous, brutal and exciting, and harken back to the days of Negative Approach, Black Flag and Poison Idea. Hopefully this will be the start of something like that."
