In Your Face- Demo 1988 + WNYU + Comp Songs + The Grub 7"

Here is one quick request fill before I post a lot of west coast stuff! In Your Face was a great hardcore band from New York. They were around from 1987 to 1990. The band had members of Token Entry. In fact, I think the music here has a lot in common with Token Entry and even Gorilla Biscuits. This is a big file, but it has a lot of great music in it. First, there is the In Your Face demo from 1988. Then, I put the WNYU set, which is mostly demo songs. Also, I included two comp songs, one from the Seeing With New Eyes comp, which I planned on posting here at some point, but the In Your Face song fits with this post, so here it is. Finally, I included The Grub 7". It has a little bit different sound than the rest of their songs, adding a lot more melody than the previous stuff. It is my favorite stuff from then, but I'm sure people's opinions will differ. There is an unreleased LP from after the 7", but I didn't include it because I don't think it's too great or anything and all of the stuff here is better, in my opinion.
Enjoy the music!

Here is a cool promo shot of the band...
