What the band offers here with 13 songs is far better than at Wild at Heart. TOTAL CHAOS demonstrate with this album that their band name deserves to be mentioned alongside giants like The Casualties or The Exploited. The songs are stylistically a mix of rough crust and hardcore punk paired with '77 street punk. Political, socially critical lyrics have characterized TOTAL CHAOS in the past. On this record, the band continues down this path consistently and more radically than before.
The band tackles hot topics in American politics, such as the Iraq War, but also mentions mundane harassment by the police. This hits the nail on the head and shows once again that not only brainless idiots come from America, but also engaged, politically aware individuals.
TOTAL CHAOS play politically engaged punk rock as it should be!
" AVOID ALL SIDES " is essential listening for the hardcore and crust faction.
