Further Left For Dead/Chris Colohan Updates

In case you have been living under a rock... Chris Colohan is kind of a big deal in the hardcore scene. He's been the driving force behind such past and present bands as Haymaker, Left For Dead, The Swarm, Cursed, Countdown to Oblivion, Ruination, Burning Love, and more. Left For Dead recently reunited for the second time since the 90's, and they recently put out a reissue through A389 Recordings. Now, according to their blog plans to continue on have fully come to fruition.

I am re-blogging/hyping this, after the jump...

Ebay Shitbirds Rejoice.

This weekend in Hamilton we finished recording the first of the 4X7" series we're doing. 8 songs, including Rival Leaders (the Exploited cover we were playing at the January shows) and a redux of Standing By. They'll be limited to 400 (in honour of 400 Upper Sherman, a pivotal Steel City hardcore house of our youth). We're putting them out ourselves, they'll be available via subscription through A389, and they'll have all kinds of extra shit in them - stickers and patches and a poster that all 4 covers will make up. There'll be no digital version other than previews like below, just records and tapes. And if you miss out on the 7"es, when all 4 are done it's going to be an LP, also on A389. 

Here's a new track called 1946 (about Evelyn Dick) which will also be on a Hamilton-themed Schizophrenic LP comp. Recorded by Jesse Bartkiewicz:

There's not a lot of shows and there won't be, but we're trying to swing what we can. We're playing Chaos in Tejas with Infest, Final Conflict and Hoax (plus a secret 2nd show). We're also playing Sound and Fury in July with Tragedy for you west coast mofos, and with Citizen's Arrest in Montreal in August.

Also, this:

...fuck you, bucket list.

xSTUCK IN THE PASTx blog also previously announced a Chris Colohan detailed retrospective is in the works, so definitely keep an eye out for that as well.
