Articles Of Faith – Your Choice Live – Compact Disc

Your Choice Live is a live album by the American punk rock band Articles of Faith, released in 1991. Articles of Faith, hailing from Chicago, were known for their high-energy punk rock sound, characterized by fast tempos and socially conscious lyrics.

This live album captures the band’s powerful and passionate live performance, likely featuring songs from their discography such as ‘I’ve Got Mine’ and ‘Remain in Memory.’ Punk rock carries a strong sense of social and political commentary, and Articles of Faith’s music is no exception.

While Articles of Faith may not have achieved the same level of mainstream recognition as some of the big names in punk rock, they had a devoted following within the punk and hardcore scenes. Your Choice Live is a notable release in their discography, exemplifying their energetic and politically charged style

A Chicago-based hardcore band that took a strong political stance, Articles of Faith were considered one of the vanguards of that Midwestern city’s scene and released a handful of highly influential records.

Fronted by former protest singer and eventual history instructor Vic Bondi, Articles of Faith first came on the scene in 1981. Their first EP, What We Want Is Free, was released in 1982 and was followed by the Wait EP in 1983 and the LPs Give Thanks (1984) and In This Life (1985), which were both produced by Bob Mould.

While their early releases contained a mélange of differing styles, their last release, In This Life, is one of the records credited with kick-starting the emocore sound. The band (Bondi, vocals and guitar, Dave Shield, bass and vocals, Virus-X, drums, Dorian Tajbakhsh, guitar, and Joe Scuderi, guitar) broke up in 1985.

Bondi went on to form Alloy and Jones Very, released the EP Fortunate Son in 2003, and appeared in the 2006 documentary American Hardcore. In 2002 punk rock label mainstay Alternative Tentacles released Complete, Vol. 1 and Complete, Vol. 2, a comprehensive anthology of the band’s work.
