New York, NYC, USA's sludgy crossover thrash band from the 80's released this banger of an album in 87. Lots of tongue in cheek attitude with social commentary as is customary for the genre. Linked is this heavy stomper with some melodic elements which completely stand out from the album.
Album art is from one of the many reissues, the original is here.

Agnostic Front ("One Voice", first of all), D.R.I., Napalm Death (maybe the first, definitely the longest existing HC band), early Suicidal Tendencies, GBH (however strongly on the punk side), Crowbar, Black Flag for the beginning. Ah... Possessed's debut *Seven Churches" had a certain punk vibe, too, even if it's generally considered the first death metal album.
Hell yea, I had heard of AF but I'll actually get around to trying them out. Never heard of Crowbar or GBH tho, so, nice! Thank you man :D
You're in for a treat with Crowbar. One of the original sludge bands along with Eyehategod.
It's funny cuz I've heard of eyehategod, but not Crowbar, wtf? Lookin forward to it!
