Reviews & Opinions

JEFF BALE, MAXIMUM ROCKNROLL #10, DECEMBER 1983: The APOSTLES are enigmatic. They are one of the most articulate and politically-oriented bands I've ever heard, but despite their obvious intelligence, they're a bit ominous. Their political philosophy is a strange amalgam of progressive (anti-establishment, anti-government, seemingly anti-racist) and neo-fascist (homophobic, strangely nationalistic) notions, and they advocate violence to overthrow the system. Musically, this record is raw, abrasive, punky, folky, experimental, and atypical, but the APOSTLES' significance lies in their provocative ideas.
