1.
Hatred! The poisoned reflection of self a new spirit that burns a new ideal that burns in me When the worlds up in flames what will we have left Misery, hunger, all for glitter, and greed Humanity, Union, is what we lack A poisoned reflection How could we let this be Let this be
2.
take one look at how far you've sunk you've shed your pride run from decisions shift the blame refuse to face your shame (Your fucking shame!) you poison those around you through yout lies cast upon yourself an arrogant gaze through an amber view of life you live your days you've lost the respect and love you sought cast aside their hand turn away their love burn through their trust that one day you'll need
3.
Too many tears I’ve cried Memories lost in time Don’t want to continue with this Feel like my heart has been ripped out of my chest How can we just move on Past all of this How can we just move on It seems to quick. I’m still in this process of grief while you seem fine None of this feels right Maybe it’s me and I’m the one who needs to reflect but it’s you who’s pushing-this-neglect I embrace the things you brought And all the times we fought None of it seems so fair But it’s not up to me To me!
4.
Sick with greed You take and take corroding human minds It’s In your eyes you take and take Sick with greed you walk away False distinction Mass extinction Pollution No resolution Said and done in the blink of an eye Agents of death in disguise Waging war to feel alive Face full of shame now they’re numb to the cries Agents of death in disguise
5.
Down and out, a dead stop Up until the pressure drops Secret visions Hallucinations A fire in the sky No way to stop nowhere to go when the pressure drops Sacred visions Hallucinations Wired eyes A fire in the sky Roll of the dice Pay with your life

about

EB07-0627

Since the 70's, Los Angeles has been a place of wonder, creation, and innovation when speaking of punk, hardcore, new wave, death rock, and myriad other alternative subcultures and divergent musical manifestations. Enter the late 80's, when straight edge hardcore began to reign supreme across the California Southland. By this time, however, proper Los Angeles had fallen off the proverbial straightedge map, with a few exceptions (see Extinction Burst/Advanced Perspective's forthcoming Interlocked LP). While music continued, straight edge hardcore comprised of actual Angelinos was rare.
With great excitement we bring to you Firestarter. To us they are making history. Tracing back their genetic origins to ancestors such as Insted (What We Believe era) Firestarter can claim to be true heirs to the Los Angeles throne of Straight Edge Hardcore, a privilege only few can actually brag about.

As if that wasn't enough we present to you Madhouse. Never was a name so apropos as now. Madhouse comes to you from the Inland Empire. Many forget that California is the most populated state in the United States. Many forget that most of the population of California lies in its southern portion. When thinking about youth culture in the US we often think New York and Los Angeles, when thinking of Los Angeles we forget about the vast regions that surround this metropolis. We forget about areas such as the Inland Empire and their tremendously rich contributions to culture. Madhouse continues this legacy. Bringing you raging hardcore reminiscent of Heresy, Intense Degree, and Cryptic Slaughter. While many youth are taking their cues from the 90's, Madhouse draws inspiration from the foundational musical periods of the 80's. Fast, aggressive, and angry, Madhouse is here to break the monotony of status quo moments within subculture. 
(members of Wise, Zulu and Rolex)

Without bias, this EP should be one of the best in the last two decades of American hardcore.
