SS DECONTROL- "The Kids Will Have Their Say" LP

What is there to say about SSD’s long out
-
of
-
print 1982 debut,
The Kids Will Have Their Say
 that 
hasn’t already been written? Long heralded as the first straight
-
edge album, this collection of
songs captures a time and an era in the nascent hardcore scene before there were formulas and
posturing. In other words, it’s an unfiltered artistic state
ment that’s singular in scope and vision.
The Boston act’s debut was extremely limited, never repressed and has gone on to have a life of
 its own despite the fact the only affordable way to listen to it has been low quality streams on
YouTube. Now, after b
eing out of print for 40 years, the album is going to be available on 
streaming services and vinyl by Trust Records with updated remastered audio and a painstaking
 recreation of the iconic cover art courtesy of Bryan Ray Turcotte. Over the years the mythol
ogy
 of the album has only grown
—
and this reissue of the album is sure to introduce this prescient and
 powerful collection of songs 
to a new generation of fans who never had the opportunity to see 
the original lineup of guitarist Al Barile, vocalist Spring
a, bassist Jaime Sciarappa and drummer
Chris Foley perform live.
