Cro-Mags - Signs Of The Times

Performing at The Pour House Music Hall in Raleigh, North Carolina on Wednesday March 28, 2018.
The Cro-Mags are a hardcore punk band that turned into a crossover thrash band. From New York City, the band has a strong cult following. With a Hare Krishna background, they are among the first bands to fuse hardcore punk with thrash metal. Also associated with the birth of a tougher attitude within the hardcore scene of the 1980s; relating to the world of martial arts. John Joseph McGowan and Harley Flanagan (former drummer of the Stimulators) are practitioners of boxing and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu respectively.
The Cro-Mags have released five studio albums; their first two considered the most influential. Having gone through several line-up changes, as of 2016, there are no consistent members left in the band.
