On the Front Line” is one of the freshest, cleanest new punk CDs out right now. The Casualties, hailing from New York City, bring much more to the table this time than spiky hair. This album focuses on poverty-stricken America, corrupt politics and the band's own view on war. With hard-hitting singles like “Tomorrow Belongs to Us” and “Unknown Soldier,” this CD will be sure to blow out your CD player.

This time around, the band takes more of a hard-core approach by using heavier rifts and tougher breakdowns. This is also one of the best-recorded CDs by this band. If you're into the punk scene, lace up your boots, get out to your local (independently run) record store and buy this CD!
