Please somebody rerelease this album . It along with Handel and the plague ep is their best stuff . the prices for this LP on discogs are ridiculous.
-
I'm getting old maybe but as good as this one is, NA is not a band I can put on when stressed out lol. It is such an urgent sounding band, up to Handle With Care anyways. -
About time this gets a remastered reissue!
I never heard o I.R.S. Records, it's the only album I own only as files that's on that label, and none of my physical collection. Did Nuclear Assault have issues with the IRS and now the master tapes for this album are lost due to some sort of twisted convoluted shadowy corporate thriller-like story? -
I can't believe that this masterpiece of American hardcore thrash metal has not been re-released officially by now. More so since the original CD - at least the european version I have since 1993 (it was not easy obtaining it even then!) - sounds a bit muddy and might benefit from a decent remaster. There are so many great, great songs on it. Brainwashed, Survive, Equal Rights are just the top three. I love Handle With Care, but I prefer Survive.
Had a big back patch with the artwork back in the days...16 year old baby face, but on the back a skull and rotting power plants :-D -
Just a touch lesser than Handle With Care, but great, too bad I'm not about to buy it, the CD's are 50 bucks minimum! Is it that rare? There's vinyl for VG+ at 30 USD but sold from places I don't buy, like say Turkey, no racism, just that the farther I'll buy from Canada is Russia, and the seller better be an European Russia, anybody who ever ordered from a Russian seller who shipped from Siberia who lives in North America likely knows how insanely long that process is. But yeah, 50 dollar CD's, woah, they need a reissue for that, High Roller Records, remaster that thing already!

Can anyone help with this particular pressing? The matrix/runout on side "B" ends with CR-2 on my copy, "A" side ends with CR-1 as noted though. My 2 sided b&w sheet has lyrics on one side, acknowledgements/thank-yous on the other side.
Also, in reference to the T-shirt order form, are you referring to the clear inner plastic sleeve which has I.R.S. t-shirts available for sale (other side of the sleeve has other I.R.S. records available to order)? Any help would be appreciated.
