MR0501 Major Conflict- Sounds Like 1983 CD
Just short of an hour long glimpse into the wild and reckless world of early 1980s New York hardcore. As fellow travelers URBAN WASTE dissolved following the release of their now classic EP, three quarters of that band, including original UW singer Billy Phillips, teamed up with other local hoods to form Major Conflict, then a veritable supergroup of NYHC. Destined to have become a classic were it not for the whirlwind speed with which they burst on the scene and left it, this record gives a detailed retrospective of Queens-style hardcore, and includes the bands unreleased studio recording featuring KRAUT's Johnny Feedback on drums.
Please note: this page is not maintained by the band, but Dito, Nick, and Johnny Waste all have myspace pages of their own which are linked to by this page. If you'd like to reach Billy Philips, drop a line here.
