This EP clocks in at about 8 minutes. Within that 8 minutes you'll hear some of the best live hardcore known to man(and probably other species).
Government Issue plays fast and tight, yet still sounding like the good raw DC hardcore most know and love. Along with a few traces of other styles for some originality; it's hard not to see why they have such a legendary status.
Bottom line: If you like hard, fast, loud, Punk that approximates the force of a Tornado rolling through your living room, ripping everything to shreds, and then leaving as fast as it came; then this EP is for you!
...Yeah, best 8 minutes ever!
