Born Out Of Time - The New Christs

Label:	Lance Rock Records
Released:	1997
Highlights:	Circus Of Sour No Next Time Like A Curse Afterburn Another Curse

Rating: 10/10


Quite simply, you should own everything that The New Christs have ever released. Failing that, this compilation is the next best thing. Best viewed as an introduction to the band, Born Out Of Time contains the band's first two classic 7 Inch singles (Born Out Of Time b/w No Next Time and Like A Curse b/w Sun God) as well as almost all of their equally brilliant first album, Distemper. Musically, this compilation is indispensable. Every song is a highlight. The playing throughout is nothing short of enthralling while lead singer Rob Younger sings with real emotion and passion without ever overdoing it. The liner notes by Frank "Oz" Mills are also excellent and give a good overview of the history of the band.
