I decided to start my comeback in music-sharing business with this absolute gem. This issue is one of few albums that are constantly in my mp3 player. Fast and furious, sharp and hard-hitting, FCTC is a mixture of old-school NY hardcore, some modern influences (guitars on intro to I'll Call You Back, for instance) and a good portion of self-loathing. Music is clean and tough, espiecially in few starting songs. Lyrics are non-pretencious, with few self-ironic moments (like in We've Tried Nothing And We're All Out Of Ideas) and mostly about personal insecurities, problems in relationships with other people as well as oneself, hypocrisy in the punk scene and so on and so on. Best consumed loud and under the influence of alcoholic beverages.
