Seems like everyone is hoping on the Suicide Train, but instead of doing it, they are trying to raise awareness to prevent further youth suicides from happening. Similar to that of Deep Elm's past compilation and tour, Sub City is also into doing compilations and tours to raise money for suicide awareness. The Hopeless subsidiary has outdone themselves this time with an impressive double album of hardcore and punk bands contributing songs to the cause. It's not a high profile compilation with a lot of big names. The biggest names include Thursday, Thrice, Boysetsfire, Further Seems Forever, Small Brown Bike, The Jealous Sound, and many others. If any of these bands spark interest in you then you need to check out this compilation. It's hard hitting with none of that wimpy punk. One of the best tracks on the compilation is from a band called Vaux. The song is called "Switched On" and it kicked my ass. Take Action Volume 3 with it's two discs chock full of music is a bargain. If you know anyone or personally are contemplating suicide call 1-800-SUICIDE right away to see what you can do.
