Thought Crime - Self Titled


Hardcore band from Oklahoma, USA
"The name Thought Crime comes from the book 1984 by George Orwell. We live in a place where originality, questioning, and free thought are shunned. Fads come and go, trends fade with time but hardcore should always be a place for open minded individuals to feel at home and find family."

'nuff said!
