FIGHTING CHANCE - Sacrifice and Struggle LP
Formats: CD, DIGITAL, and LP
Limited Edition blue vinyl

"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)
Stylus Magazine
"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)
