Such Gold from New York area recently released a brand new ep via awesome Bird Attack Records, so it was time for me to listen to it and review it for my zine.

The usual problem with ep is that it contains too few songs and it usually leaves you hungry for more. But, that is the purpose of ep is it?

This one contains 5 songs of melodic punk with some hardcore influences. For those who still dont know Such Gold play very technical version of melodic punk style and it is really a pleasure listening to their rich song structures and catchy but complicated sounding guitar riffs. From slower but heartfelt “Ceiling Stare” to fast almost Propagandhi like “Ransom”, this ep is a really pleasure trip for your ears. I can also hear some rock n roll influences in “Worlds Collapse”. It is just incredible how Such Gold varies in song structures and if you have a band you might know how it is actually hard to do such things. The title song is for me the absolute highlight of this record and I found myself trying to hum the melody tune long after I finished listening to the song and went out to do my business in the city. Absolutely another great record and I missed this band when they were in Europe but I will not make the same mistake again.
