MARGINAL MAN: Identity Vinyl LP
$44.95 AUD
One of the most melodically ambitious records to come out of the D.C. hardcore scene.
Identity (1984) is the debut full-length from Marginal Man, formed from the ashes of Artificial Peace and among the first D.C. hardcore bands to run two guitars. Where most of the scene was still operating at full-blast velocity, Marginal Man were already bending the template — broader melodic range, more dynamic movement, and a songwriting ambition that pointed directly at where post-hardcore would go next. Nine tight tracks, none of them wasteful.
