This is an audio documentation of a band's evolution from 2006's melodic punk outburst "The Troubled Stateside" to 2007's critically acclaimed opus, "Crime In Stereo Is Dead."

Deluxe Digipack Edition ! Copykill have definitely set their seeds to archive once more what German hardcore is all about.

For fans of All You Can Eat, What Happens Next, Tear It Up, Vitamin X and the likes!

Groovy but still heavy Hardcore in the vein of Cold World, Blacklisted, Expire, Alpha & Omega, Trapped Under Ice or Backtrack.

So, expect a mix of midtempo Death Metal a la BOLT THROWER and SIX FEET UNDER, with some metallic Hardcore a la MERAUDER and FULL BLOWN CHAOS.

Based out of Providence-Boston-New Bedford - Civil Defense is a six man squad that includes veteran and current members of bands such as Intent To Injure, Beyond the Embrace, So Automatic, Black Spot, Emission, Roswell, Voices Forming Weapons, and more.

The band’s mix of Swedish inspired metal and chaotic metalcore might not be kicking down any doors in the department of originality, but they do an impressive job of balancing the two sounds.
