In the mean time the band was becoming a favorite with fanzines around the world and such notable publications as Kerrang and Rock Hard and also began garnering much attention on various college radio programs quickly catching the attention of the various labels including Combat, Music for Nations, Metal Blade Records, and Roadrunner. After signing their record deal with Roadrunner, DÉTENTE recorded Recognize No Authority. In the studio cracks in the band develop due to personality differences and an extremely tight schedule. The near constant turmoil between Dawn Crosby and producer, Dana Strum, endangered the project, but somehow the record is finished and released to critical praise.
