Kill from the Heart is an album by the hardcore punk band The Dicks. Widely considered a classic of the genre,[citation needed] it was the band's first full-length album and the last to feature the group's original Texas-based line-up. The album finds the band mixing its hardcore punk style with blues aesthetics.[citation needed]
