This Album Saves Lives Vol 1
Written by Jan Gow on January 30, 2024
Rock ‘Em Dead Records release a charity album.
In association with Rock Em Dead Records, a benefit album will be released in the first few weeks of February 2024 with all profits donated to two suicide prevention and youth mental health charities; SAMARITANS and YOUNG MINDS
This vinyl only release features previously unreleased, released and live tracks from well known and some up and coming bands on the UK and US Punk, Oi and Anarcho scenes.
All the tracks, engineering, layout and design, advertising space, and organisation talents have been donated for free enabling us to provide more funds for these very important charities. Suicide and mental health issues are at an all time high, especially amongst young men.
The title of the album, “This Album saves lives vol 1” is a very loose play on the slogan on Woody Guthrie’s guitar. The vol 1 hints at a possible series provided the public get behind the ethos of the project.
This album hopefully does what it says in the title.
Saves lives!
The album featues tracks from :
CRASHED OUT – DESPERATE MEASURES – UK SUBS – SUBHUMANS – THE LAST GANG – STEADFAST HTX – STEVE DREWETT AND THE INDESTRUCTiBLE BEAT
CITIZEN FISH – NOT – STEVE IGNORANTS SLICE OF LIFE – BLACK STAR BRIGADE – THE DROWNS – SUZI MOON – SUEDEHEAD
To purchase the album and support Samaritans and Young Minds please go to the Rock Em Dead website where there are details of how to purchase via PayPal to keep the overheads down, and the profits up.
