Obsolete

Rarely has 10 minutes of running time been so righteously rocking, infectiously tuneful, and still properly punk. "Obsolete" is a blast on a number of levels, but primarily because Prescott, AZ's HOUR OF THE WOLF have not only located that elusive middle ground at which the furious meets the catchy...
