Power in One is the final studio album by punk rock band Wipers, released in 1999 by Zeno Records. [3] [4] [5] The album was written, produced and recorded at Greg Sage's Zeno Studios in Phoenix, Arizona. [6] [7]
Exclaim! wrote that "led by Sage's sinewy lead guitar riffs, the band plays in a gothic-tinged post-punk style that is timeless." [8] The Arizona Republic wrote that "Sage retains his guitar soloing ego on Power in One but he's tempering his songwriting with aging post-punk anxiety." [9]
All songs written by Greg Sage.
