Born Against – My Country Tis Of Thee Enemy Of All Tribes [7''] (1995, Not On Label)

 

Politically aware, always cynical, and powerfully musical, Born Against brought the passion and restless anger of American hardcore into the nineties. First active in 1989-90 in New York City, the band featured vocalist Sam McPheeters and guitarist Adam Nathanson, as well as a revolving cast of drummers and bassists. (The most solid lineup included Tonie Jay and Brooks Headley of Universal Order of Armageddon fame.) Born Against began with the usual round of 7" and compilation appearances, including a spot on Ebullition's influential 1991 comp 'Give Me Back'. 

This is a bootleg vinyl edition of the 1989 demo tape 'My Country Tis Of Thee, Enemy Of All Tribes'. The track "Nail That Sticks Up" does not appear on the original tape, but is present here; it originally appeared on the 'Bllleeeeaaauuurrrrgghhh! - The Record' 7" compilation. The final track on the original demo, "Resist Control", is omitted entirely, although its lyrics are still present in the insert, as the lyrics there are simply a photocopy of the insert included with the tape.
