One Voice
Break Free (LP)
Crucial Response

This is a new record but the songs aren’t new, it’s the compiled recording effort by the Belgian youth crew band. When their demo was released I was excited to see a fresh band step into the light. “Kid till death” was a great song that in a way summarizes the feeling of hardcore and at the same time brought Youth Of Today back to life. The 7’ that followed was alright but the band never took off in the way that I expected. I guess they didn’t have “it”. One Voice broke up and their legacy isn’t that much to speak of. Replaceable and third category youth crew and I honestly think that there are better new bands around that Crucial Response could have signed instead and done a 7’ with.

I would only recommend Break Free to kids that collect Crucial Response or youth crew records.
