A decent cheapo comp featuring a wide range of what Chicago has to offer these days. Just a few of the 26 bands represented are the Gaza Strippers, Pegboy, Apocalypse Hoboken, Mekons, Blue Meanies and the Strike. The reason behind such a diverse range of bands was to show that Chicago ain't a one sound town. With pop, ska, old-fashioned punk rock and more contained within, I think they proved the point.
