I got The Future of War not long after it came out, followed by Delete Yourself. At the risk of gushing about a record (and there's no other band I could say this about), they changed my life. Before ATR I was a bit of a wet indie kid (I still am, to a degree); afterwards, I started listening to a lot of music that woud've been the anathema to me before. I also starting to get 'politically active' - I was an angry young thing back then. I'm sure you don't want to know what happened there (there were some regretful things happened in that time). And, obviously, one record doesn't do that to a person.
Actually, you know how people talk about the Pistols or Public Enemy changing their whole approach to music? That was the Future of War, for me. All the indie kids I knew hated it. All the metallers I knew hated it. All the hip-hoppers I knew hated it. All the D'n'B heads I knew hated it. Which made them the best band ever, to my mind.
Ah, youthful reveries...
