RAD: Loud & Fast Cassette

Loud & Fast is the debut studio album by American hardcore punk band RAD. It was released in 2013 by Sacramento Records. Sacramento’s RAD is a living, sweating, biting example of an era gone by. They carry on the fury, brevity, and humor of the mid-‘80s when punk and thrash were crossing over, but with totally modern sensibilities. They began in 2011 and quickly become Sacramento’s first and only hardcore apologists. RAD is LORY GILPARTIC (SHARK SANDWICH, RIFF RANDALS) on vocals, ANTHONY LEW on bass, CRAIG HANCOCK (Shark Sandwich) on drums and CHARLES ALBRIGHT on guitar and backing vocals. With their debut LP, Loud & Fast, they make no more apologies. Loud and Fast is a 20-song love letter to American hardcore and thrash. RAD would like you to believe they are Negative Approach with a sense of humor, or DRI at there most cathartic. But actually, RAD is just a good band. They’ll play in your basement. They will play your backyard. They will play in your living room. Middle Clas
