Here is the Discography CD from Chula Vista hardcore band
Amenity. They appeared on the
"They Don't Get Paid..." comp.
I just re-posted and were a staple of the Southern California HC
scene in the late 80s. A straight edge band with posi lyrics and a
healthy social conscience, musically they seem to me to straddle the
line between bands like Ignition and Verbal Assault and the emergence of
early 90s chugga-chugga style HC as practiced by groups like Groundwork
and Chokehold. Their "This Is Our Struggle" 7" was a mainstay on my
turntable back then. This CD, issued by
Vinyl Communications,
includes their Eps and compilation tracks, demos and some live tunes,
including cool cover songs. The sound quality on much of this
collection is lacking but the early tracks, though rough, include some
great HC tunes. The later material is more mid-paced and rocking, but
still powerful and the lyrics are great. I bet these dudes were awesome
live.
