Relationship Of Command - At The Drive-In (2000)

This is one of those records where talking about it just doesn’t do it any justice.

ATDI was what you call “multi-hyphenate,” as they are hardcore but are so much more. (that could also be a pun on the fact that the leaders of the band both have hyphenated names: Cedric Bixler-Zavala and Omar Rodriguez-Lopez)

Please turn this up and allow it to rearrange your brain.

Tracks I Liked

Arcarsenal - maybe the best hardcore song ever recorded. fight me.

One Armed Scissor - brings in some more singable hard rock along with a great chorus

Enfilade - rips and roars
