Search - 45 Grave :: Only the Good Die Young

Formed in Los Angeles in ?81, 45 Grave quickly became a major presence on the early ?80s U.S. punk scene with their unique goth-meets-punk sound and image and tongue in-cheek approach which stood out from the West Coast hardcore of the day. Featuring ex-members of punk legends The Germs and The Gun Club, 45 Grave created a unique sound and look which carries through to today?s bands like AFI. The band split after releasing just one proper album (Sleep In Safety) in ?83. A mainstay of the 45 Grave catalog, Only The Good Die Young (originally released in ?89) captures the band with killer sound at a sold-out ?88 reunion show in Hollywood. For 2005, 45 Grave is back and going strong with a number of sold-out shows behind them plus upcoming high-profile touring plans surrounding this re-release.
