Hype were from Oakville. Unlike most bands they had a manager who went under the name Reuben Kincade. Think Partridge family parody. This was the first record and it was self-released. Pushead reviewed the LP for MRR as "Smoking speedcore attack from Canada. Never expected this. Fast punching rhythms with metallic leads and mayhemic chord changes. Good vocals and drum smashing prove this LP to be one of the classic records that you can always pull out and play. First S.N.F.U., then DIRECT ACTION, and now HYPE--the Canadian assault is upon us!" (from Maximum Rocknroll #27, August 1985).
