burnout store hamburg is a convenient thirty minutes drive away from my home. i try to visit my favourite physical store pretty regulary. round about once every two months. when flicking through the racks, there is always a small amount of records that seem to collect dust for a considerable time already, records i come across since i visited the store for the first time.
killing the dream's third full length 'lucky me' is such a record, or better was, because i finally decided to give it a try. killing time is one of that typical deathwish melodic hardcore bands. the carrier and carpathian were two names that came to my mind when trying to find similar sounding bands. maybe killing the dream has a little bigger screamo slice.
'lucky me' is a solid output. i like some killing the dream from time to time, but it's nothing that spins on heavy rotation. so i'll pick up the other records when they are coming my way and the price is right. just like i did with 'lucky me'. listen to the whole record here. will take only twenty minutes of your time. short, crisp, good.
the first and only press to date got three colours. 300 copies on green merge, 700 on green and black split and 1000 copies on opaque green. as you can see i have the latter variant. love the jacob bennon artwork but wasn't the picture from the inside gatefold featured on converge's 'you fail me' also? i see some similarities at least. deathwish inc. 2010.
