Remove ads
13-Point Program to Destroy America is the debut album by the American post-hardcore band Nation of Ulysses.[4][5] The album's title is in reference to the Black Panther Party's Ten Point Program and J. Edgar Hoover's propaganda pamphlet "Red China's Secret Plan to Destroy America."[6] The title of track No. 13 was inspired by Frank Sinatra's album Love is a Kick.
Tracks 14-16 on the CD are not on the original album, and are taken from their 1991 self-titled 7" debut.

Critical reception
Trouser Press wrote that "singer Ian Svenonius (who doubles on occasional bleating trumpet) has a deeper, throaty quality to his delivery than most DC-style barkers — not quite a Stax/Volt Rollins but a striking combination of ardor and menace that elevates his breathless rage above mere harangue."[9] The Washington Post called the album "so brattily self-conscious that only the ferocity of its attack keeps it from curdling."[10]
