Better than Live at CBGB.

TransformOnline - Music Review

I can't believe this is already being reissued. It seems like this split just came out last year. Anyway, Working Class Heroes is a really good recording of a live show in Belgium from 2001 with both bands doing great sets. This must have been quite a show to be at! I can almost feel the machismo of the Belgian skinheads in attendance, proving how tough they all are, flowing through my speakers. And I can almost hear the fear and irritation of all the non-skinheads who just wanted to see two of hardcore's toughest bands without hassle and had to stand at the back so they wouldn't get stomped in the certain-to-have-taken-place wall of death in the mosh pit. All of that aside, the recording is really good and captures what sounds to have been a very energetic show by both bands. If you're an Agnostic Front fan, you probably already have this. But if you don't, I think it's much better than Live at CBGB from maybe 12 (?) years ago. Okay, it's probably more like 15, but I'd rather not admit that I've been listening to AF for over 20 years, okay!?
