More info:
Open Your Eyes
was the second full-length album from New York hardcore band, Warzone – who originated in Lower East Side, Manhattan, United States. It was released in 1989 on Caroline Records and follows on from their first album, Don't Forget The Struggle, Don't Forget The Streets, the previous year.

Among the production team was guitarist, Dr. Know, of the New York hardcore band, Bad Brains. One of the tracks, "Always – A Friend For Life", was a re-recording of a song from their debut EP, Lower East Side Crew (1987), as was "We're The Crew" from their previous album. In 1994, Another Planet re-issued the album on the same disc as Don't Forget The Struggle....

Lyrically, the band strived to distance themselves from the racist skinhead label which had haunted them from inception. Other lyrics discussed oppression, togetherness, and the sense of belonging to a bigger, extended family. Musically, the album featured straightforward New York Hardcore with plenty of room for mosh indulgence. However, the first signs of musical experimentation emerged with occasional guitar flourishes. ~ from Wiki
