burnout store: survival 7"

survival - s/t 7"
i just can't be in the city without getting something from burnout. simply impossible. and if it's only a fucking 7", i have to go there and lose some wallet weight. this time was no exception. after i was through with the lp section, i made my way over to the 7"es. searching for something interesting, i came across this one here. i never heard of them though. based on the fact that it's out on six feet under records and i kind of liked the cover art, i took it out for a quick listen.
after i had given the first side of the record a spin, there was no doubt about what i would add to my collection this time. survival are hailing from the country/continent of australia. my knowledge about them is still pretty limited. this seems to be their first release and it appeared originally on resist records in 2012. so six feet under handled the u.s. version. referring to the music, this is crushing metallic hardcore. unfortunately the five songs are not all as brilliant as 'payback' or 'painless'. but hey, i mean it's their first record. i see great things coming if these guys keep sticking around for more stuff. check this for some tunes.
sfu records pressed two colours for this piece of music. 457 copies of the first press plus ten tests. 130 on white vinyl. 50 copies without cover on green vinyl, that will be used for future limited versions and 277 copies on green vinyl. i have some kind of transitional copy, as you can see the white traces in the vinyl. love stuff like this! comes on thick quality vinyl and with a digital download card.
