Unapologetically straight forward, speed-reliant hardcore that won't give metal the time of day and leaves punk lying in the dust, SLAPSHOT continues to be nothing but the purest version of hardcore there is.  Olde Tyme Hardcore starts with a clip from the '70s hockey movie that gave Slapshot their band name. (The title is actually a triple pun: hockey, the touristy Revolutionary War-era kitsch of the band's native Boston, and the fact that this kind of old-school hardcore was entirely out of fashion are all being referenced here.) 

From that opening, the band blasts through nine furious slabs of straight-edge fury with the wild-eyed abandon of true believers tempered with a bit of wistfulness. There's a hint of nostalgia not just on the title track, but on the album's centrepiece track, a fiery cover of SS Decontrol's "Get It Away," arguably the best Boston straight-edge single.  Singer Jack Kelly disbanded Slapshot a day after the release of this album, after over 13 years as one of Boston's premier hardcore bands, and that "end of an era" sense hangs over this entire album.
