Classic Compilations : P.E.A.C.E./WAR

Revisionist histories are occasionally the most entertaining kind of histories. Screw the facts. Let’s change the perception of the past.

That obviously wasn’t the intent for the P.E.A.C.E./War compilation, initially issued in 1984 and rereleased in 1997. The thing is, though, that the difference between the first and second versions of the album find a weird array of bands sitting next to each other. Everyone knows Articles of Faith and some eighties hardcore fanatics are familiar with O.D.F.X. – so it makes sense that the Chicago based band and those Clevelanders/Akroners were on the same original disc. The reissue, however, tosses on Anti Flag doing a song off its first album, which was released in 1996. That’s just a weird grouping of bands.
