Simply obliterating any conception of the Wipers as a mere punk band, Greg Sage released this follow-up to "Is This Real?" in 1981 - a sophisticated, overwhelming response to the evil times marked by the turn of the decade. Broken up into six long songs, "Youth of America" is a much colder, harrowing experience than the teen angst of their debut. Vocally, Sage comes off as sleep-deprived and forsaken, snarling not only at his own predicament but at the predicament of the entire world. The centerpiece of the album is the title track, a dire ten minutes of paranoia and angst that gave Sage the space to showcase his wildest, darkest playing yet.

LP 2: 1 My Vengeance, 2 The Story, 3 Scared Stiff, 4 When It's Over (Alternate Version), 5 Pushing The Extreme (Out-take mix), 6 No Fair (Out-take mix), 7 Youth Of America (Out-take Mix).
