Blow The Scene.com - Underground Music, Art, and News

Two of our all-time favorite bands, Dropdead and Converge, have just released a little blip about at Deathwish as to what we can expect from their forthcoming split 7″, due out in June 2011.

Split 7″EP & Digital available June 21st.
Pre-ordering information and other specifics will be announced shortly.

Self released by Converge and Dropdead.
Exclusively Distributed by Deathwish Direct and The Armageddon Label.

A pairing of two legendary bands celebrating their joint twenty year history within the Punk/Hardcore genre.

Both songs were recorded at Kurt Ballou’s God City Studios in early 2011, and mastered by John Golden (Neurosis, Melvins, etc). “Runaway” from Converge is an instant classic for the band, unrelenting in its speed and emotional ferocity from beginning to end. While Dropdead’s “Paths of Glory” is an unforgettable political punk/hardcore anthem, that proves that the years behind the band have only strengthened their hold on the battlefront of the true underground.
