Background notes
Archive material and source history
SSD formed in Boston in 1981, part of that city's early hardcore scene. Their first EP, 'The Kids Will Have Their Say,' came out the following year. They followed it with albums like 'How We Rock' and 'Get Real' before breaking up around 1986.
Songs like 'Boiling Point' and 'Get It Away' had a raw, aggressive sound that felt urgent. The band's lyrics often dealt with frustration and social tension, which connected with a certain audience at the time.
They reunited in 2006 for some shows and released an album called 'Time Capsule.' While their initial run was short, their early records remain a specific document of Boston hardcore in the early 1980s.
