Die! Die! Die! – How Ye
By Caleb Rudd • Sep 9th, 2010 • Category: Downloads
Despite the fatalism of their band name New Zealand’s Die! Die! Die! produce some pretty energetic, life affirming music. Formed by Andrew Wilson and Michael Prain in Dunedin in 2003 the band have established a loyal following after their self titled debut album in 2005, a second album Promises released in 2007, and a hell of a lot of touring. Now a three piece the band are set to release their third album FORM produced by fellow Flying Nunner Nick Roughan (The Skeptics) on October 1st via Flying Nun/Remote Control. From it “How Ye” is a good taster of what to expect from the album as a whole: a chiming “Dunedin-sound” guitar intro gives way to a ferocious blast of post-punk bass and drums in the verse with Wilson’s “Too much talking/No time listening” advice seguing into a classic punk-pop chorus where any hope of understanding the lyrical thread is lost. Still with music as good as this who needs words?
