Articles of Faith – “New Normal Catastrophe”

A blistering storm of sociopolitical fury, New Normal Catastrophe is a momentous 2010 comeback 12-inch EP from legendary Chicago hardcore pioneers Articles of Faith. Released through Jello Biafra’s iconoclastic label Alternative Tentacles (catalog number VIRUS 422), this release marked the band’s first batch of newly recorded material in nearly a quarter-century. The physical 12-inch vinyl format perfectly frames the band’s historic return, capturing a raw, razor-sharp analog production that lets frontman Vic Bondi’s politically charged prose slice cleanly through the heavy wall of rhythm.

Track Listing:

1. With a Vengeance – 2:38
2. Coming Off the Rails – 1:47
3. New Normal Catastrophe – 3:30
4. Hammer Song – 2:29
5. Brother John – 3:56
