MATW's Urban Waste reissue on Anthology Recordings!



New York City punk label Mad at the World Records teams up with Anthology Recordings, the world's first all- digital reissue label, to offer some of Mad at the World's popular, early 80's New York hardcore reissues. This will be the first time Mad at the World's reissues are available in mp3 format in an online store, and Anthology will be the sole digital distributor for the next 6 months. Anthology just went live with the first record slated for release, the classic sole EP by the enigmatic Queens band Urban Waste, of whom Roger of Agnostic Front has said "they're the band that got me into hardcore!" At the end of the month, Anthology will offer up the second release, the reissue of the Nihilistics' debut album from 1983, one of the NYHC originals who were featured on the early "NY Thrash" compilation alongside the Beastie Boys and the Bad Brains. Rounding it out will then be the Urban Waste spin-off band Major Conflict (which feature the now-successful author and director of "A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints," Dito Montiel on guitar and vocals) and their retrospective "Sounds Like 1983."
