This past weekend, 20 years after their split, straightedge hardcore legends Chain of Strength reunited for a pair of shows at the Revelation Records 25th anniversary bash on the east coast. (They actually first reunited at a SoCal studio nearly a month earlier, but that’s not really supposed to count.) The band only existed from ’88 till ’91, but helped define a youth-crew scene cemented by stellar Revelation brethren like Youth of Today and Gorilla Biscuits—not to mention multitudes of Bold T-shirts.
