"WHILE I DON'T ENJOY THIS BRAND OF DISCHARGE AS MUCH AS THEIR EARLIER INCARNATION..."

PIC(S) INFO: Mega spotlight on vocalist/songwriter Kelvin "Cal" Morris & bassist Roy "Rainy" Wainwright of English hardcore punk/heavy metal band DISCHARGE, from the back cover sleeve art to their "Ignorance/No Compromise" 7″ vinyl single, released on Clay Records in 1985.

MINI REVIEW: "The A-side is a pretty catchy, almost MOTÖRHEAD-type rockin’ metalish number with excellent lyrics. The flip is too plodding for my tastes, but again with good lyrics. While I don’t enjoy this brand of DISCHARGE as much as their earlier incarnation, at least the integrity of the thoughts is maintained."
