H20 - F.T.T.W.

H2O, hailing from New York City, burst onto the hardcore scene in 1994. Formed by Toby Morse, a former roadie for Sick of It All, the band quickly established themselves with their blend of melodic and aggressive hardcore punk. The bands classic third album, "F.T.T.W." (Faster Than the World), solidified their status as a leading force in the hardcore punk genre.

To celebrate the 25th anniversary of F.T.T.W., the album is being reissued on vinyl for the first time in over two decades. The 19-song album has been repackaged with a 2nd LP featuring the previously unreleased, F.T.T.W. 17-song demo, which was produced by Tim Armstrong (Rancid) and remastered by Paul Miner (Death by Stereo). Further enhancing the album's impact are guest appearances from Roger Miret (Agnostic Front), Civ (Gorilla Biscuits), Freddy Crecien (Madball), and Tim Armstrong (Rancid). These collaborations add another layer of depth and diversity to the album.
