Ancient request finally rezerred. Straight Ahead emerged as a very fast hardcore engine from the ruins of NYC Mayhem, who were a truly noisy thrash machine. There are connections between these dudes and several major bands like Sick Of It All, Agnostic Front etc. Primitive, fast & loud! Ah the raw fury of the 80s!!

    i have a dub of this hellhouse demo, sounds like old sarcofago w a 1000 miles/hour drum machine and totally atrocious vocals, it was pretty scary when i first listened to it in the 90's

  4. I seen Straight Ahead play live once, in 1987 at Ildiko's (Toronto) and talked to Tommy Carroll , really cool, laid back guy. They were supposed to come back and play another gig later that year in the summer time, but they didn't. Maybe they broke up by then.
    I wasn't familiar with their material, just the NYC Mayhem 1985 demo (it is called Violence on metal archives, but it didn't have a title back when it was traded to me), but blew my mind, just like when hearing D.R.I.'s Dealing With It Lp for the first time earlier that year.
