How You Gon’ Wait? (December 2013) – Back to the Top
HYGW includes seven tracks from the infamous Chicago based AOC collective. It’s a mash up of social justice psych, radical boom-bap funk, magical slow jams, and reggae punk anthems for the people! For this album, AOC collaborated with the OhNo!Doom collective (also based out of Chicago) for the album artwork, and the result was insane.
Track Listing
1. Destroy
2. Robin Hood x John Brown
3. Hideous
4. Agency
5. The Next Catastrophe (How You Gon’ Wait?)
6. Silent Spring
7. Life’ Short (Too Damn Ska/Dub Soundsystem Bootleg)
Chicago Got Me Sweatin’ (August 2012) – Back to the Top
Four tracks of hip-hop, reggae, punk, dance, ska, and more. As usual, the lyrics are politically charged: poverty, gentrification, racism, among others topics, are important themes in these songs. With the large increase in homicides in Chicago this year, almost exclusively in poverty stricken neighborhoods, along with record high temperatures this year, we felt it was an appropriate title for this EP.
Track Listing
1. Chicago Got Me Sweatin’
2. Decolonize Now!
3. Inertia
4. Peace & Rest
Buzzkill Mixtape (November 2011) – Back to the Top

Sucka Free (September 2010) – Back to the Top
The long anticipated first full length live band release from Agents of Change, Sucka Free has been several years in the making. Musically, the album is a mixture of hip-hop, funk and fused with elements of punk, jazz, ska, and dance, while lyrically it engages the sad state of mainstream hip-hop, worker’s rights, militarism and more. This record has been known to inspire anti-fascist dance halls anywhere within hearing range when played through the proper sound system.

Peace in the Mideast, Rest in the Midwest (June 2007) – Back to the Top
Released in June 2007 on our East Coast tour with Trike, this CD marks a transitional period of AOC history. We had been playing as a band for about 9-10 months, and there were all these songs made during the more traditional “hip-hop” days of AOC left unreleased. It is very much representative of changes that were happening musically and politically with us.

1. Odd to Me (Setting the Mood)
2. Cliche Anti-War Song
3. Klaxon Symphony Orchestra feat. Skeptik
4. Getting My Shine On

Thug Life/Westside Connection (January 2006) – Back to the Top
The first full length release from AOC (though technically it’s CRACKhead plus himself under the alias DJ Catalyst…so in theory it’s a solo CD). We stayin true to that gangsta shit! Reprezentin’ our cliques, ride ’til we die baby! No… fuck that, the CD is acutally the exact opposite of that ish. Educate yourself, open yer mind, blah blah blah, all that good shit. Some critics have been saying it’s the post-crunk CD of the year. Westside Connection is the ‘B-sides’ combined onto the later half of the same disc (Tracks 14-22).
