Champions At Heart
Whats important is this when punk rock broke<br>and bands cashed in on fashion trends, Down By<br>Law stayed true to its ideals. While everyone else<br>played The Forbidden Beat and wrote songs about<br>f**ts, Dave Smalley was penning songs about feeling<br>lonely and out of place, afraid and uncertain. It s<br>clear that DBL is the only real claimant to The<br>Clash s legacy, and that legacy is the admission that<br>we may be isolated and lonely, we may be alienated<br>and ****** up, but revolution can only begin in the<br>mirror. Now, DBL celebrates their 23rd year with a<br>new studio album of soon-to-be punk anthems for<br>the next generation. Champions At Heart is their<br>ninth full-length release, and is reminiscent of their<br>classics on Epitaph Records.
