Cro-Mags: Alpha-omega
Artist: Cro-Mags
Title: Alpha-omega
Product Type: COMPACT DISCS
CD reissue. Since Alpha - Omega's debut in 1992, its creative origins have been long-disputed between the band's members and fans alike, and it's only in the past five years or so that the album seems to finally be gaining some respect-largely from a younger generation of fans who have come up in a scene that is more receptive to a wide range of influences. We at Divebomb Records remain unconcerned with the drama, as the Cro-Mags created some of their most outstanding material during this turbulent segment of their timeline. A bold statement ripe for debate, sure, but the bottom line is that Alpha - Omega is-in our opinion-some of the finest crossover metallic hardcore that New York City has ever produced. We won't bore you with typical descriptions, because the legacy of the Cro-Mags speaks for itself. The music is what truly matters, and we're thrilled to once more bring this much-treasured classic back into the favorable light it has always deserved! This expanded repress of Alpha - Omega features the same crushing audio from 2010 (fully remastered by Jamie King at The Basement Recording) alongside a fully overhauled layout that includes photos, archival press clippings, and an all-new interview with former Cro-Mags guitarist Gabby Abularach. For the fans, by the fans!
