Zero Boys were one of the most vital hardcore punk bands to emerge from America's midwest, originating from Indiana in the 1980s. History Of, released in 2009 on Secretly Canadian, compiles their raw, uncompromising sound across the years. The band delivered pure aggression and urgency—driving bass, punishing drums, and stripped-down guitar work fueling confrontational vocals. Their hardcore punk aesthetic remains unpolished and powerful, free from production gloss. This collection captures the essence of '80s American hardcore with relentless energy and no-nonsense attitude. For fans of early SST Records, Black Flag influence, and unrefined punk intensity, this is essential documentation of an underrated band.
