MDC is a punk rock band formed in 1979 in Austin, Texas, subsequently based in San Francisco, and currently Portland, Oregon. Among the first wave of bands to define the sound and style of American hardcore punk, MDC originally formed as The Stains; they have periodically changed the meaning of "MDC", the most frequent being Millions of Dead Cops. The band's lyrical content expresses radical left political views and has proven influential within the punk counter-culture.

MDC released material through ex-Dead Kennedys singer Jello Biafra's independent label Alternative Tentacles. In the 1990s, vocalist Dave Dictor published editorials for the internationally distributed fanzine Maximumrocknroll. MDC's initial run ended in 1995, and the band spent five years on hiatus, before returning in 2000 with some new band members.

The band's 1987 album, "this blood's for you", is indistinguishable from their previous one. Radical music change from old hardcore punk to songs slowier, melodic and closer to blues rock. In fact even "politician" is a cover of band Cream.

a lot of people back in 1989 where not happy with this record like they where not happy 3 years earlier in 1986 w/ smoke signals as many hardcore kids at this time felt mdc where going in a very fluff direction but for me?? i really enjoyed the lp when it came out in autumn 1989, some fantastic songs are on here like deep in the heart of fascist amerikkka, i was a dupe for the rcp, acid reighndeer was quite odd but it fit this record well at this time, i remember i did not like that song knucklhead i felt that was a bit silly at the time so yes i had to pick and choose wich songs i liked best of this album, the title track was very good to, i saw mdc at gillman st in berkley ca about 2 months before this record came out and the songs went over live very well, before this came out dave had played me a couple of songs from this in the summer of 89 when i was out in frisco and i crashed at the legendary rat house a night or two it was great and nice of dave to give me a little glimpse of what metal devil cokes was going to be like, anyway i really enjoy the humor and the way this album just goes great vibe but i also understand the die hard 80s hardcore crowd at that time that did not care for this release, once again i loved it and still do, i also own it on cd as well as viynl i bought back in 89 when this hit the then record shop shelves, ive been a big mdc fan for 31 years now since 1984 so even some of the records fans did not care for in the later 80s i always found something i really liked on them as i did with this one, like i said not every song is great BUT the ones that are here are worth it to buy this on lp or cd... great memories from these days ps it was at this time in the late 80s some where calling mdc a heavy metal wanna be band like dri turned into sorry i did not agree with that then and still dont, they just got a bit tripped out that is all they where guilty of (*Review by Edward Mccarthy ).
