Album Review: Agnostic Front - The American Dream Died

"...the Front remain true to their working-class ethos."

More Agnostic Front Agnostic Front Profile

In 2004 these NYHC veterans roared back to life with the sterling Another Voice.

Unfortunately, since then their efforts have sounded more than a little tired and derivative. The American Dream Died changes all that. Boasting the raw edge of the classic Victim In Pain LP and street-level bravado of the band’s Epitaph releases this album makes Agnostic Front relevant again. Enough Is Enough and I Can’t Relate last barely a minute but pack a visceral punch. Elsewhere Social Justice and Police Violence show that the Front remain true to their working-class ethos.
