Agathocles

***A collection of studio recordings from 1987 to 1990. From Negative Insight Zine: "Agathocles are less of a band than they are an institution. They have a discography that is beyond expansive and daunting. It is the textbook example of when fans say 'I don’t know where to start.' But aside from the size of their discography, Agathocles is much more important for their political grindcore that has been staunchly committed to supporting and bringing attention to animal rights issues, political and social justice, and environmental causes since their inception. They also have remained steadfastly committed to DIY ethics throughout their entire career, even during the late 1980s and early 1990s when grind became commercialized and saw many bands jump at the chance to sign to bigger labels (with major label distribution), mainstream press, and whatever other 'opportunities' they could get. Agathocles instead eschewed such dangling carrots in favor of remaining vehemently anti-commercial."
