Think about skating, and you think about punk rock. The two have become inseparable, the terrible twins, joined at birth and destined to suffer together throughout their increasingly dangerous life spans. Out of the madness that linked both, skate rock was born, and the band that epitomised and epitomises skate rock more than any other are The Faction. Formed by Steve Cabellero and fellow skaters, the band had one function. To provide a soundtrack that could be skated to. One that was hard enough to grind along with, powerful enough to fuel a thousand vert tricks and street sessions, that raised a middle finger to the mainstream play it safe, stand on edges wannabe skaters and their ilk and catchy enough to sing along with and dance to at the pool parties and barbecues that followed every session. The Faction fulfilled the dreams of Cabellero, and went above and beyond his wildest expectations.
“Collection” draws twenty eight of the best songs from all of The Factions previous releases and offers them up to the skate gods to dispense to the kids discovering four wheels and a board for the first tie and veteran riders alike. The Faction are back!--interpunk
