Retroactive Records press release: HARDCORE FOR JESUS is a sonic assault from beginning to end with 2 CDs containing: .85 self-titled 4 song 7. EP, .86 Return Fire 19 song (cassette), .86 Automoloch 6 song (vinyl) 12. EP, .87 The Past Behind 6 song 12. vinyl EP (1st recorded version, not the R.E.X. recording), and .89 Burn This Record (R.E.X.) all of which provides a lesson in stamina that invites the listener to question if the band will outlast the listener or vice versa.
When THE LEAD hit the scene and released their debut self-titled, four song 7. record on their own, it seemed to many a nearly impenetrable cacophony of sound (which is great for fans of punk-n-thrash!). And, with each release, the band seemed to get heavier and faster. Over two decades later, it.s easy to see that The Lead.s music was incredibly ahead of its time. Touring nationally, and opening for such legendary bands as D.R.I. and Suicidal Tendencies only cemented the bands place in the early hardcore/metal scene.
