Background information about 'Age of Quarrel: 40 Years of Quarrel'

Forty years on, and "The Age of Quarrel" still hits like a brick to the face. Cro-Mags didn't just record an album back in 1986 — they essentially wrote the blueprint for the whole metal-punk crossover that would swallow hardcore whole. The riffs, the groove, the sheer street-level menace: it all still crackles with the kind of intensity most bands spend entire careers chasing. So the fact that founding bassist and vocalist Harley Flanagan is now dragging this monster back into the light, forty years deep, feels less like a nostalgia trip and more like a reckoning.

And what a crew he's assembled. Doug Holland, the original AOQ guitarist, is back in the fold alongside Rocky George of Suicidal Tendencies fame, plus members of the modern MAGS successor bands Turnstile and Rise Against. Produced and mixed by Arthur Rizk — the man behind Power Trip and Blood Incantation — this re-recording of "40 Years of Quarrel" doesn't just dust off the classics. It pours fresh gasoline on tracks like "Hard Times", "World Peace" and "Malfunction", then lights the match. Throw in "Everybody's Gonna Die" from the 1985 demo era as a bonus and you've got a full-circle statement that old heads and newcomers alike will feel in their chest.

For fans of:
Agnostic Front, Sick of It All, Madball, Suicidal Tendencies, Warzone
