NEW RELEASE: RED DEATH "S/T" 7" now available for PREORDER

Last year, Washington DC's RED DEATH came out of the gate and obliterated everyone with one of the best hardcore demos of 2014. Their first recorded output channeled the sheer brutality and precision of crossover classics like Animosity, Cause for Alarm, and Best Wishes, without straying too far from the rawness and reckless abandon of hardcore punk. With their debut LP on the horizon (much more info on that in the coming months) and a decent amount of tour plans for 2015, it made perfect sense to get those demo tracks onto the 7" format where they arguably should have been in the first place.

What you get on this EP are four blistering cuts and a Discharge cover, all remastered for vinyl; the perfect introduction to one of the most promising hardcore bands going on the East Coast today.

We did 220 on limited CLEAR vinyl you can click HERE to preorder a copy in the Grave Mistake webstore.  These are scheduled to begin shipping February 16th, and the band will have copies on both their upcoming northeast weekend with AJAX and southern tour down to Badass Weekend III in Houston.
