V/A Endless Struggle: The worst of the 1 in 12 Club vol. 12/13 double LP

Review in PROFANE EXISTANCE zine Nr. 26/1995:

The latest and best in the series of compilation LP' s put out by
the 1 in 12 Club in Bradford, England. With a few exceptions, all
of the bands on this LP played at the club sometime between July
' 90 and July ' 92 and what a hell of a line up that is. A few of
the more noteworthy tracks are from TERMINUS, DISAFFECT,
SEDITION, ONE BY ONE, CLUSTER BOMB UNIT, BLITZKRIEG (yup, back
from the grave), SARCASM, WAT TYLER, SORE THROAT, OI POLLOI,
VOORHEES, NAILBOMB, DECADENCE WITHIN, CONTROPOTERE, DOOM,
CONCRETE SOX, HIATUS... fuck it, they are all pretty good and
most tracks are previously unreleased. There is also a big lyric
book, which unfortunately doesn' t give any information about the
organizations/groups that this project benefits (the Anarchist
Black Cross and the Zapatistas). As far as the bands go, the only
thing I can complain about is the inclusion of the idiotic
straight edge/Hardline band IRONSIDE who are almost funny  in the
fact that their lyric page is a complete parody of themselves
(unintended of course). This record is definitely worth tracking
down  and you can probably get one relatively cheap from Active
Distribution. (Dan)
