APPENDIX MONEY IS NOT MY CURRENCY CD Propaganda Records Collector scum will pay close to $1000.00 for Appendix LPs, making them completely out of reach for every punk I know.

Review: [:SITD] – Stronghold
[:SITD:] Stronghold Metropolis 5/5 Originally released on Accession Records, [:SITD:] has become one of my favorite acts to come out in the last few years.
