1992 Hardcore: Round 2 In An Endless Fight compilation 7"

As mentioned in the Groundwork (CT) post, they also appeared on a compilation 7" put out by the same label who released their self-titled 7". So here it is. Put out on Round Two Records in 1992 as their first release, this compilation features 5 bands. Higher Force was a band with Pete Morcey on vocals (also one of the people behind Round Two Records), who would later on do vocals for Forced Reality and 100 Demons (replacing Bruce LePage). His vocal style is a bit too much here tho for me. Another Wall would get a great posthumous 7" release on Doghouse Records, and their track here is easily the best contribution to this compilation, love this song. Groundwork I already covered in my previous post, this is a great track, just as good as their self-titled 7". Livestock I know nothing about, but would love to hear more of them, great stuff, there's even some chugga chugga in their sound. If anybody knows more about this, please leave a comment! Evolve does a decent, albeit slightly weird track on here. They also appeared on a split 7" with Mindwar, also released on Round Two Records. Overall it's a fairly solid compilation. The front and cover of the sleeve are printed in a slightly different form on the inside of the sleeve, so that's why they appear twice with the scans. The insert is rather large, so I've broken it up into separate scans. Enjoy!

Oddly enough Hearsay Records, who also released (legit or not) the Converge/Overcast and Vision Of Disorder/Loyal To None split 7"s, would release a compilation 7" with the Groundwork, Livestock and Evolve tracks from this compilation on side A and the Evolve tracks from their aforementioned split 7" with Mindwar on side B. Sounds sketchy to me, hahaha...

There was only one press each of the 3 official Round 2 Records releases. Pete Morcey and Mark Martin (R.I.P.) owned the label. The 1992 comp, Evolve / MindWar split 7" and the Groundwork". Good luck finding them! I have them all, including the 3 different color variations of the sleeve for the Evolve / MindWar split that were printed for the band and close friends.

Pete was singing for Forced Reality BEFORE the release of this dope-ass 7".
