One of the things I love about hardcore is that some bands and records labels still press and release vinyls records. So I decided to blog a bit more about the great 7 inches and 12 inches that I get. The first record I want to present is Forever Young‘s 7 inch called The Chance.
I don’t know this band for so long. The first time I heard of them was when they got their song “X on my hand” featured in the EDGE The Movie documentary. Here is a quick biography:
Sweden’s FOREVER YOUNG made their mark with the 10 tunes debut “The Guarantee” (Monument Records) and with this follower they keep the path of vegan dreams. Song titles like “Straight Edge Got My Back” and “Keep It Posi” are reflecting the state of mind of this restless VSE Umeå band : filled with attitude, knowledge and youth.
This Red/yellow mix color vinyl was released on I FOR US RECORDS (from Belgium) and Monument Records (from Sweden) and you can still get your copy on our webstore. This is the first pressing: 625 red/yellow mix and 10 test presses.
Tracklist:
1. Forever Young II
2. Keep It Posi
3. Bigger Than Hardcore
4. 090
5. Time Is Running Out
6. SXE Got My Back
7. Every Day Is War
This record is fast, raw, straight to the point and REALLY catchy (if you’re like me, you’ll probably listen to it 15 times in a row!). If you like fast melodic hardcore with sincere lyrics (mostly about hardcore, straight edge or veganism), check these guys out!
A more in-depth review can be found on the World’s Appreciated Kitch blog.

For many reasons, I For Us Records will go on a indefinite hiatus this fall. But we still plan on releasing more stuff till then. So, we decided to made a huge sale and sell our 2007-2009 releases (except the new Nine Eleven album) at crazy prices! If you want to enjoy that great opportunity to get a lot of amazing hardcore releases at cheap prices, go check our Disobedience Distribution webstore.
A couple of other news from the IFU headquarters:
Coming up soon are the first 7 inch of our friends in RENO(chaotic stuff inspired by bands like Converge and Norma Jean), the first EP by the belgian youngsters in PRESSURE (co-production with the newly founded Align Records) and the new 7 inch from swedish straight-edge band FOREVER YOUNG. This last one is a co-release with our friends in Monument Records from Sweden. No need to say that we are excited by all these new records!
OUT SPRING/SUMMER 2010:
27: TOGETHER – The Odyssey (2×7″)
27: NO GUTS NO GLORY – Hidden In The Light (LP+CD)
