Produced by underground legend Richard Marr, Disaster Strikes delivers Boston hardcore punk with impactful lyrics about social justice and workers’ rights. These ten blistering tracks encapsulate the raw energy and intensity of Disaster Strike’s live sets. The opening track “The Fighting Path” is fermented with protest and resistance from its violent start to its incendiary final warning. The title track, “In the Age of Corporate Personhood,” features guest vocals by label czar and legendary punk provocateur Jello Biafra. Featuring epic cover art by Minneapolis-based artist Bill Hauser, In The Age of Corporate Personhood is a blue-collar, hard core juggernaut that captures an intensity rarely grasped by studio albums.

Boston's most politically-active and inspirational hardcore punk band is back with a scorching vinyl 7" that sonically and lyrically eviscerates corporate greed and imperial politics! Informed by singer J.R.'s life experience as a full-time union organizer, this must-have 7" for all fans of hardcore punk with a message delivers a level of truth and political edge that can't be bought at Hot Topic. "The Interrogation Sessions EP" is also the first Alternative Tentacles vinyl release to ever come packaged with a special download "dropcard" which gives owners of the vinyl a one-time code for one free download of all 4 tunes. Forged in collaboration with two East Coast underground legends - Producer Richard Marr (Toxic Narcotic, A Global Threat) and Engineer Jeff Lipton (Dropkick Murphys, Dead Milkmen, Sebadoh) - "The Interrogation Sessions EP" by Disaster Strikes also features new Disaster Strikes guitarist and Boston transplant Josh Sawhill, formerly of SoCal hardcore heavyweights All or Nothing HC. Every one of these limited 7-inch vinyl records has a different color pattern, so each one is unique! This is a great continuation of their hard-hitting 2006 Liberty Toast cd! Brand New!

Formed in 1999, DISASTER STRIKES has crafted its own unique brand of punk and hardcore inspired by the likes of ECONOCHRIST, DRI, AUS ROTTEN, CRASS and early ANTHRAX, while channeling the influence of their Boston predecessors SLAPSHOT, MISSION OF BURMA and THE PROLETARIAT. Singer J.R.'s life experience as a full-time union organizer infuses the lyrics (comparable to lyrics by JELLO BIAFRA or MDC at their height) with truth and political edge that can't be bought at Hot Topic. For their Alternative Tentacles debut Liberty Toast, DISASTER STRIKES brought on underground sound sculptor and TODAY IS THE DAY frontman Steve Austin (CONVERGE, UNSANE), who bolsters the album with production that is neither stone cold nor bionic. DISASTER STRIKES' renown has grown continually with inclusion of members from Boston hardcore legends TREE, and their stints supporting such bands as BOY SETS FIRE, RATOS DE PORAO, THE CASUALTIES, TOXIC NARCOTIC and THE UNSEEN. Featuring a guest appearance by JELLO BIAFRA as well as artwork by AT partner-in-crime Winston Smith, Liberty Toast is a quintessentially Alternative Tentacles release, a one-two punch of political awareness and punk backbone, from our ever-expanding arsenal of incendiary East Coast punk acts.
