last year i wrote about i am heresy's debut full length, which is self-titled and had been released via magic bullet records. this record really took me by surprise and therefore i wanted to check what else they might have up their sleeve. checking the usual source for vinyl related information, discogs told me that there was also an e.p. in existence.
so i searched around where i could get this e.p. called 'o day star, son of dawn'. this time end hits records, which also handled the european version of the self-titled album, took release matters into their hands exclusively. end hits is german label and afterwards they put out even more nathan gray related music.
stuff like his solo project and some more european pressings and re-pressings of boysetsfire albums respectively 7"es. with this i am heresy material the label did a great job when it comes to packaging. a nice matte card cover with cool artwork, matching white vinyl, a sick-ass owl etching on the b-side and all hand-numbered. good work! i, however, scored this baby at per koro distro.
musically this is just the dark metal/hardcore/punk mishmash that appealed to me on the self-titled record by this now defunct band. sometimes it sounds a bit dated, if you know what i mean, but that's not really a bad thing. listen to the whole glory at the cargo records youtube channel. this release was pressed in a limited run of 500 copies. mine is #448. end hits records. 2013.
