Die! Die! Die!

FORM is Die! Die! Die! like you have never heard. It is the album they always wanted to write, and the one you knew they would.

It calls upon all the parts, plus more, that make this band so exciting but never allows you to stop and put your finger on one.

Whatever you call it, its relentless, reckless and sometimes menacing. It has all the ferocious energy and bursting melodies of their previous releases, and while it can tear through you one moment, it also shows a band trying on something different.

In 2003 two Dunedin teenagers Andrew Wilson (Guitar/ Vocals) and Michael Prain (drums) decided to start playing music together. Out of this came Die! Die! Die!

What followed was a self-titled debut album in 2005, and an intensive international touring schedule for the last four years. When bassist Henry Oliver left the band in 2006, Die! Die! Die! invited their friend Lachlan Anderson to join the band, with their second album Promises, Promises coming out in 2007. Now, having signed to Flying Nun Records, Die! Die! Die! are set to release their new album FORM via the revived label.

Much of the album was written while holed up during winter last year in Dunedin, and that city isn’t the only Flying Nun connection either, with FORM being produced and recorded by Nick Roughan from The Skeptics.

FORM still has plenty of the Die! Die! Die! style of cataclysmic punk, yet, with the help of Roughan, the band have also crafted a new, more densely layered sound combined with haunting melodies.

FORM is out now on CD, digital download and glorious 12” vinyl LP. Furthermore, in what will possibly be the loudest tiki tour of New Zealand, Die! Die! Die! are embarking on a 14-date nationwide journey to celebrate the release.
