Blood, Sweat and No Tears is the debut album by the American hardcore band Sick of It All . It was released on Relativity Records in July 1989 .

Origin and style

After the release of the album recorded in the Normandy Sound studio in Warren , Rhode Island on Relativity, it turned out that the label - as with its successor - was not ready to promote the album. However, through continuous touring the band made it to first prominence. The album inspired many subsequent hardcore bands.

Songs like Clobberin 'Time , GI Joe Headstomp and Injustice System! were in 2011 Nonstop re-recorded on the occasion of the 25th anniversary band.

reception

Mike DaRonco awarded 4.5 out of five stars and the “AMG Album Pick” award at Allmusic . He wrote that this was the album that embodied the sound of modern New York hardcore. 19 pieces of aggressive “start-stop hard core” wouldn't give a chance to breathe. Lauri Wessel from Ox-Fanzine described the “groovy mosh parts” as “typical of the New York sound”.
