Description: Christ on Parade’s debut Sounds of Nature was a fierce blast of charged Bay Area hardcore unleashed on an unsuspecting public in 1985. Recorded at Peter Miller Studios in San Francisco, the album captured the band’s mix of breakneck thrash, abrasive twin-guitar attack, and the darker influence of anarcho-punk and British political hardcore. Songs such as “Drop Out,” “No Truth,” “Landlord,” “Don’t Draft Me,” and “America the Myth” paired raw speed with lyrics aimed at war, authority, conformity, and Reagan-era politics. Contemporary punk press praised the record for its piercing guitar sound and relentless intensity, and Sounds of Nature helped establish Christ on Parade as one of the more distinctive '80s hardcore acts.
