Strike Anywhere 'In Defiance Of Empty Times' b9r174

In Defiance of Empty Times is a live acoustic collection from veteran melodic hardcore punks Strike Anywhere spanning their entire catalog. The record pulls from two different sets: a show in Rochester, NY, with labelmates Polar Bear Club, and a gig on the eve of the Occupy Movement in Richmond, VA, which benefitted the Industrial Workers of the World organization. As frontman Thomas Barnett puts it, "This is the riot folk for rioting folks."
