Although they single handedly created the D-beat sound with their 1982 classic Hear Nothing, See Nothing, Say Nothing platter Discharge also spent many years wandering aimlessly (and sullying their reputation) with a series of terrible crossover records.
Thankfully, all trepidation about End Of Days is gone 20 seconds into album opener New World Order, which brims with the unrelenting rage that made the UK82 movement so influential. From then on it's nothing but 'that' guitar sound, barking vocals and a bleak world view. Sure there's some extended guitar solos here that could have been cut, but overall Discharge prove that they can more than match their army of imitators.
