“With a new Cro-Mags album on the horizon, as always, it will be compared to the landmark age of Quarrel. If we use the two recent EPs as guideposts, it seems like Flanagan and gang are playing their hand wisely. The underlying style and message of the band’s newest material flows from the same river as the classic tracks. But, as “Between Wars” shows, the band isn’t interested in doing a carbon copy either. That’s the right play. Harley is known for doing unexpected things, for sure- thankfully, he’s applying that chaos to his music instead of other parts of his life. And, as we all expected all along, that may very well lead to some of his best recordings ever.”
