DESPISE YOU - WEST SIDE HORIZONS (1999)


A comprehensive collection of tunes spanning the entirety of the 90's from this influential and angst-ridden powerviolence unit. Brief, blasting tracks from split albums with Man Is The Bastard and Capitalist Casualties are contained herein, as well as a teeming horde of unreleased, live, and otherwise rare jams to boot. Not enough for you? How bout Possessed, DRI, Beowulf, and Circle Jerks covers too? We good yet? 62 tracks in all, each of them boiling over with hate, fear, and unbridled anger. Not very nice at all. No sir.
DxYx's unique male/female vocal attack made them a favorite of the mid-90's SoCal skatepunk scene, and were instrumental in establishing Chologrind as a feasible subgenre there. Yeah, I know I'm probably preaching to the choir here, but this band fucking SHREDS and if you don't have West Side Horizons already you are a wuss poser and your mom writes your name in your underwear with a Sharpie.

I'd rather be there,
because you're here.
Whatever, I dont care,
because of you there was a tear.
