Begin Onslaught: Long Knife Has a New LP and a Tour with Forward

Stream it in full here, and don't miss them on tour

If I had a punk band, literally the last thing I would want to be compared to is Poison Idea. They are total legends and put out some of the greatest records of their genre and possibly of all time. Yet here we are, listening to the new Long Knife record Meditations on Self Destruction and making those same comparisons, but luckily Long Knife is as relentless and blood thirsty as PI ever was. Stream their new LP Meditations on Self Destruction in full below for the first time.
