Red Dons "Dead Hand of Tradition"

About this item

• Description • Pressing Info • = • This is the US repress of this 2015 banger from Portland's Red Dons. “The Dead Hand of Tradition” features ten new tracks of their signature dark, driving, melodic punk rock sound. The formula of their distinctive songwriting hasn’t changed, but has matured as a result of having five more nomadic years under their belts between previous releases. These new experiences have only added to the themes of alienation, emigration, and loss present in their music. They recorded and released a slew of singles on labels like Grave Mistake, Deranged, Taken By Surprise, Nada Nada Discos and Dirtnap (including a collaboration with TV Smith of UK punk legends The Adverts). This is pressed on a metallic ink gatefold, featuring a thicker printed innersleeve and two vinyl variants (metallic gold and opaque red). Split pressing of 250/250. Classic, sick, good song writing and execution by a band who has never stopped and keeps kicking globally. TRACK LISTING: 01. The Good Disciple 02. Remember 03. Pyrrhic Pyrrhic 04. Together Apart 05. Amman (Before the Bomb) 06. Weakness 07. The Dead Hand of Tradition 08. Every Single Word 09. 75 Warham 10. Empires • 250 x Metallic Gold 250 x Opaque Red
