Integrity’s seminal debut LP Humanity Is The Devil has been reissued, remixed, and remastered.

Sometimes when you encounter for the first time, or indeed return to, a classic record from decades ago, the edges can have been blunted, the velocity diluted.  Echoes and traces of its initial impact can be felt, and the contours of how it shaped future music still delineated.  But the album itself can feel more skeletal, less substantial than expected.  There are no such disappointments with Humanity Is The Devil.  This is an LP that not only inspired new directions for hardcore, but still absolutely bristles with a visceral dark menace that is very much its own and has certainly not been dimmed by the passage of time.
