Chain of Strength was an influential late '80s/early '90s Straight Edge Hardcore Punk band from Southern California. Their influence has been felt in modern Hardcore bands, and they have been cited as a major influence by prominent Modern Hardcore bands Champion and Comeback Kid.
Biography
The first Chain of Strength release was a 7" EP entitled True Till Death, released through Revelation Records. After parting ways with Revelation, they formed their own Foundation Records to release another 7", What Holds Us Apart. Both of these records eventually fell out of print, yet were still in demand. As a result, Revelation Records released both EPs (plus one unreleased track) as a CD/LP called The One Thing That Still Holds True.
