"After pulverizing East Coast audiences with the strength of their debut full-length last year, Baltimore's Fighting Chance have come back before you can catch your breath or let your bruises heal. I detect shades of Slapshot and 25 Ta Life on parts of this album. While still an Oi! band, the brutally heavy songs have taken on a lot more metal and hardcore influence and the result is nothing short of phenomenal. Singer Bullseye's bark has even more bite now and as a whole, the band has channelled their energy to become even more furious and sonically devastating than before. The left-wing politics continue to blare out of the songs without hesitation like on 'Holyland', Terror Breeds Terror', and 'Global Homicide', while more personal songs like 'Fairweather', a forboding ode to backstabbers, burn with equal intensity. While countless heavy bands are spending their time parodying their scenes or gloating about gangbanging and mindless thuggery, it's nice to see a band like this take the high ground while also rocking you harder than most of their peers" (Phil H)

"Second blistering hardcore full-length from this Baltimore powerhouse. They back up the raging twin axe thrash and chug with some suitably ferocious, intelligent anti-fascist lyrics. Nice to have some H/C with a brain, as well as a heart (and pointy finger). Not to mention some royal guitar solos. Insurgence is a great Canadian label dedicated to putting out lefty, anti-fascist skinhead and hardcore bands. And they do it well." (RK)

"I thought 'what the fuck' when I put this in my stereo and saw that it had 69 tracks on it, but then I figured seeing as there are only 10 tracks listed on the cover there must be a hidden track somewhere, more of that later. Fighting Chance play brutal sounding very fast street punk/ hardcore and I think they are from Baltimore in the US. Subject content in the songs ranges from the fighting in the middle east to the corruption in America. If you like your punk fast as fuck with some great lyrics this is definitely for you. Oh yeah the hidden track...well done lads. You want me to explain? Well let's just say seeing as its track 69, so figure it out for yourselves." (Paul)
