State Of Fear

Complete Discography I

This two-volume set of records which represents the complete discography of State of Fear couldn't have come at a better time with the current hardcore/crust scene in the U.S. on the rise once again. A new generation of punks have scoured the filthy depths of the genre to find the classics, and State Of Fear ticks every box of a classic hardcore band. Formed from the ex-members of Disrupt and Deformed Conscious, State Of Fear adopted a more streamlined hardcore attack than that of either of their former bands, but kept intact the political and dark themes of the crust bands they had come from. This was hardcore made by fans of Swedish bands like Skitlickers, Mob 47, Anti-Cimex, and although they definitely wear their influences on their sleeve, they created a sound which was enigmatically their own. Entering the scene in the heyday of the Minneapolis crust explosion spearheaded by Profane Existence in 1994, they immediately made their mark with powerful live showings and a no-bullshit delivery. Volume 1 includes the self titled debut, and the infamous 'Wallow in Squalor' EP's, State Of Fear showcase a devastating combination of speed and memorable riffs not seen by another band in America since. Songs like 'Blood Thirsty System,' 'Violation,' or 'Consumption' emboldened a generation of punks in the '90s, while confirming their feelings of rage at the political system in place, which sadly still stands today. These songs aren't going to lose appeal until the blood thirsty system falls. Sonarize Records has added a large format 12 page booklet that includes a biography, interviews, lyrics, and hard to find photos of the band.
