This record and this band was life changing for me. Watching them decimate a T.V. station and being floored by this Angry Pissed off band going absolutely apeshit has been stuck in my conscious mind ever since first witnessing it. Siege is a huge influence for me, vocally and performance wise. It seems like their goal was to destroy and have fun and that's fucking killer. Their style and approach to the genre was different/new & exciting. Always wild, & super fun- they had tons of high energy and that's exactly what I want from a punk band.
Ultimately, the goal is grander exposure for really cool and radical things. If you haven't given Siege the time of day, I'd highly recommend it. They are thee purveyors of the fast-and-insane methodical punk destruction sort. This record is a collection of why they were so special and is one of my favourites. They existed as an entity of destruction and for that I will always dig this band.
Check out the classic footage that helped convert me to the darkside many years ago.
Here's their debut album, Drop Dead
Hails to Seige
