This issue came out in January 2002. This issue featured a band from Scarborough called the Class. This band was originally called NBC and would later become Action, but the Class was what they were in the interim. They were interviewed at CIUT on January 6th, 2002. A retrospective look at 2001 appeared in this issue. These were thoughts put together based on the monthly Top 10s that were compiled over 2001. There were reviews, show listings, and a rumourmill.
This is the second ep by the Class Assassins, but the first with an intentional release. A new record label with an anti-fascist mission put this out and they are called Insurgence Records. "No Justice, No Peace" is a slogan taken from the anti-racist movement and has been reinterpreted here to threaten class war. Side 2 is a cover of an anti-war song written in the 60's by Dennis Lambert and Brian Potter. It was a song I learned in grade school so it had a lasting impact that made it into school choirs. The song has a great message about greed and was covered on Direct Action's "Trapped in a world" LP. I think this is a fitting tribute to the bass player's old band by making it a B Side. The song has legs even today and is relevant in the class consciousness that the Class Assassins are going for. (Insurgence Records)
