The Riot Before may have broken up a couple of months ago but they didn’t leave us empty-handed. After talking about it for a year, this collection of the band’s early works has finally seen the light of day.

It comes with all the songs from “Horseshoes and Hand Grenades”, “So Long” and their side of the split they did with Broadway Calls and it sounds like well, an early version of what we heard on “Rebellion”, which is their most accomplished album if you ask me. Not bad at all but with 22 songs it’s a bit much to sit through in one session… one for the fans!

Lacking the talent to actually play in a band, Tom decided he would write about bands instead. Turns out his writing skills are mediocre at best as well.
