Slapshot - Sudden Death Overtime

Release Date:08/02/2019;Notes:Vinyl LP pressing. In 1988, with the youth-crew movement in full swing, hardcore band Slapshot (named after the classic 1977 hockey film) was just breaking out in Boston, MA. Fronted by Jack "Choke" Kelly of Negative FX and Last Rites fame, they took the straight edge theme and put a much more negative spin on it than what was going on in New York and Connecticut and had a decidedly more punk sound to boot. 1990's Sudden Death Overtime, the band's second full-length effort, offers up a volatile mixture of fast, maniacal hardcore with angry street punk, commandeered by the notorious Choke.
