your authority
don't mean shit to me
i will live and die by my rules
you're representative
of what i despise
can't tie me down
to be what you want
im not your property
you have no hold on me
i will live and die by my rules
you're representative
of what i despise
i'll hold my ground
only following my rules
MY RULES
MY RULES
i own my mind
i own this life
i break the rules
i won't abide
you have no spine
follow the hive
i'll live and die
by my own rules
i'd rather die
than follow a crowd
i'll only live
forever by my rules
Black is beautiful. Inside outside. This band is superb. As a huge Sabbath fan I love the low tuned riffs, as well as the hardcore speed moments, short as they are: but it's exactly that which keeps it so damn interesting. Also love the interplays full of sweetness or speeches about black culture and being black within white domination. Still some things to learn. This is the real life in music form. Let's celebrate.

Wonderful dramatic opening, the voice of a black woman in all her honesty, vulnerability and openess. And then one of the fiercest tracks of Zulu, total hardcore: 'Now they are through with me', full of twists and turns, and suddenly ending in a kind of soul-track, brilliant! This is 21st century music at it's best. The end lecture is dramatic and disturbing, spoken again by a black woman. Makes you think. Hesperus

Chicagoans craft indomitable hardcore for uncertain times, full of mangled riffs, and larynx-shredding hooks—plus a touch of post-punk. Bandcamp New & Notable Dec 13, 2023
The Chicago punks seem intent on defying any hardcore conventions, focusing instead on communicating pure disgust for the rotting world around them. Bandcamp Album of the Day Jul 1, 2022
