When hardcore spread across the nation in the early '80s, there were few corners of the U.S. left unscathed. While everyone knows the names of coastal heroes like Black Flag and Minor Threat, bands that scorched the cornfields and battered factories of the Midwest went largely unheralded. Indianapolis's Zero Boys were one such overlooked outfit. So HISTORY OF is a revelation, portraying a band that stands proudly with the giants of the genre despite their low historical profile. The material fills in all the blanks left behind by their sole studio LP, VICIOUS CIRCLE, ensuring that their entire recorded output is available. The exhilarating music is rapid-fire hardcore, but studded with undercover pop melodies and served up with surprising musicianship. Bluesy hard rock licks color songs like "Johnny Better Get" and "Human Body," and whooshing walls of melodic electricity course through fast tracks like "Positive Change."
