since i am in posession of die young's debut record 'graven images' i loosely try to get my hands on their other stuff whenever i get the chance to. i bought their 'loss' 7" last year at underdog store in cologne and here i was able to score their split with 7 generations on ebay for pretty cheap.
the die young song on this is the quality you expect from a die young song. fast and angry metallic hardcore. the second song on their side, 'degradation', is a gorilla biscuits cover. 7 generations, the band this split is shared with, was unknown to me but obviously they released two more 7"es on new eden records and even a full length on new age records in the past decade of the century. their facebook page seems still active though. their second song 'lie' is a downcast cover.
the 7" came out on surprise attack records. a label that was unkown to me too. but i know a handful of their releases checking their roaster. more die young stuff basically. i don't know much about this pressing. only the obvious colour, opaque orange. surprise attack records. 2005.
by the way die young released a new ep this week, called 'chosen path'. ugly and proud records handled things and you can order it here. naturally i already have my copy and i'll post about it the coming week.
