Record/Vinyl + Digital Album
Originally released in 1994 by Photographer Murray Bowles and Filth Bassist Lenny Johnson’s collaborative East Bay Menace label, this split combined two of New Mexico’s fiercest hardcore bands on one split LP. East Bay transplants from Santa Fe, New Mexico GRIMPLE’s sound had become more harsh, caustic and acidic, retaining strong songwriting of their debut LP but shedding some of their pop sensibilities for quick metallic riffing. Their brother band, Santa Fe’s Logical Nonsense had also begun to leans heavier, creatively arranged songs which front harsh guttural vocals and brutal crushing riffs pointing to the sound of their raging follow up LP’s on Alternative Tentacles, and their influences of EXTREME NOISE TERROR, NAPALM DEATH and NEUROSIS.
This album has not been repressed since it’s original pressing in 1994. It was been remixed by Noah Landis from Neurosis / Christ On Parade and re-mastered by Bob Weston at Chicago Mastering Service. The packaging is true to the original but has been painstakingly recreated with slight upgrades, including a new 11x22” insert with band photos and lyrics. Available in Silver and Black Vinyl.
Mailorder copies come with a button and a small sticker.

lyrics
I’m tired of all the shit I fucken see. I see It everyday. It’s us. The punx. We’re pointed at In the street. And their fucken fight just to Be who we are. I’ll try to find a better way and Not to play their fucken games and not to be another fucken puppet. You fucken freaks. Get out of the neighborhood. We’re different because we want to fuk the system. You’d have to rip out my eyes. If you want me to ignore. All the violence I see. Just look outside my front door! Not just corporations, police. State politics but the fucken pig that sits on top. Crush the foundations, The rest will fall! They system has it’s weak spots we must find them. Us the punx believe it or not we’re strong. Together we can be the stiff link that keeps the system turning. They run your life well. Take a look at yourselves. They run your life well. The lies of freedom. This nations fucken crap. Look into a world of shit before it splatters in your face look into this world of shit the Amerikkkan nation of hate. We want the unjustified money hungry pigs together we ca be the stiff link that keeps the system turning!
Polish noise-crust outfit eschews the big Tragedy-esque riffs still popular with their US counterparts for scratchy claustrophobia. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 2, 2016
The Italian hardcore group’s latest is a powerful, claustrophobic album that rarely lets up its mathy, metallic assault. Bandcamp Album of the Day Feb 6, 2018
The Chicago punks seem intent on defying any hardcore conventions, focusing instead on communicating pure disgust for the rotting world around them. Bandcamp Album of the Day Jul 1, 2022
