AMERICAN EAGLE - LAND OF THE FREE HOME OF THE BRAVE Record Review

AMERICAN EAGLE - LAND OF THE FREE HOME OF THE BRAVE 7" Review from Back Street Battalion Zine

After their maxi EP which was released last year and which contains four songs from 1989 release United Riot Records EP from this band (200 on beer vinyl, 100 on black one) with their two forgotten songs. On side A you may listen to Land of the Free Home of the Brave and on B side is song called The Gallery. The band used to play in classic four piece line up and they are planning reunion this year. First song starts with shouted army song for marching. Song is faster with singalong refrain and clear topic – defending of the flag, national pride and fight with commies. Circa in the middle of the song is guitar solo. Second song The Gallery is about bar on the suburb which band likes in spite of the fact that it is nothing nice. Music is slower than first song and guitar solo is there also. Both songs contains loud bass. Cover is done by Muna again which is great as usual, on the back side are lyrics and band photos from the gigs. It is some kind of lost and found songs again which are released by URR and which are influenced (little bit) with hard core. Fine and big thumbs up for the graphics.
