Rebels Choice

Great split from my former roommate THD records.  Two great bands, lots of solid rock.  EVeryone knows D4, but shortly before (or after, I forget) this split 7" was released, THe Strike moved to Chicago and put out a couple of albums as a three piece. Speaking of hte Strike, make sure you get their early demo tape on this same blog.  Search it out.

Oh, yes the artwork will say that it was Doin’ It For the Kids Records…..I was never sure why J.P. changed the name, but never fear…..this is classic THD records.

The Strike

A Conscience Left to Struggle With Pockets Full of Rust

Socialist mod-punks, The Strike started out as a 4 piece consisting of Macalaster College kids. They later slimmed to a trio and left the twin towns for Chi-Town where they continued to grow in popularity, but eventually broke up.

This is one of their later records after they moved to Chicago, but they’ll always be a MNPunk band.

Get it here or here.
