Counting the Days (MD hardcore)

Strike First records- are you familiar? If you grew up like I did, some of the best bands you listened to in that time when you first started to bridge the gap between metalcore and hardcore bands were Strike First bands. Counting the Days was one of those bands for me.
My knowledge about this band is insanely limited. I think I got this cd in some "grab box," a 20 cds for 20 bucks kinda deal. I googled them just now and there is hardly any information on them. But I can say this 13 song LP, with just over half an hour of highly emotionally charged melodic hardcore is one of the first hardcore records I heard, and to do this day is one my favorites. I'd tell you to support this band, but I have no idea how you'd do that.
