Wild mid-decade hardcore punk from both bands, including a 17-minute interview from STEP ONE. Never heard anything from either before this tape...recording is rough, but you take what you can get with you're unearthing history.

Just four songs, when it starts with the title track from 1985's 'Contemporary World' and then sneaking in a faster version of "Contra Rebels" from the first LP, four is just enough to leave you hungry. Those first two records are flawless, and this recording captures their melodic fury at their height.
