Allmusic[1]

In This Defiance is the second full length album release by California hardcore band Strife.

The album would prove to be the bands defining moment as over the years it would gain recognition. It would go on to be performed in its entirety by Strife in 2018[2], was ranked 7th among the Top 10 most Underrated Hardcore Albums by Metal Hammer magazine[3], and AllMusic stated that this album was when "Strife finally hit everything just right. Their sound is big and full, yet almost clinically tight; the tempos are brisk, sometimes headlong."[4]

In 2017, the album was reissued on vinyl with a limited run of only 100 copies through guitarist Andrew Kline's own WAR Records.[5]
