Sick Of It All - Based On A True Story

Rating: 9

It seems there’s no stopping these NYHC veterans! With a respected reputation for cutting the crap through their no-nonsense straight-talking approach, they’ve racked up almost 25 years as leaders of the pack. While they’re not going to re-invent the wheel with album number nine, ‘Based On A True Story’ sees a much heavier line of attack. Opener ‘Death Or Jail’ is a brutal and massive hoof in the chest, with Lou Koller’s caustic vocal revealing a tragic chain of true events that led to the death of a friend while ‘Lifeline’ is as gritty as it gets. As Sick as ever, these legends are very much on form.
