Sometimes a picture can speak a thousand words, which makes what I'm about to say redundant, but The Age Of Quarrel lives up to its cover art and then some, detonating with such force that its reverberations are still felt today.

One of a kind album in the discography, the original sound and the line-up was lost after this. And I don't think that any continuation by the band was attempted to make similar music to this, which is a shame. Upping the rating after a multitude of listens and the album proved to stand the test of time.

We Gotta Know and Show You No Mercy are absolutely the best C-M songs

I don't like it. I expected more punkish crossover thrash metal but this is actually closer to just punk.

It is a classic punkish crossover thrash metal album. Cro-Mags sadly never able to record such a classic work ever again.

There's no thrash in this one, that's in later albums, but they ain't nearly as good as this beast.
