Hear VIAL’s rewritten Grow Up B-side “DIY or Die”

Back in March, indie-punk trio VIAL unveiled their second album, burnout, which contained a catchy set of songs that skidded between dark anthems and raucous heft. To end the year on a high note, they’ve rerecorded their 2019 debut EP, Grow Up.

Titled Grow The Fuck Up, the project arrives Nov. 29 via Get Better Records and will be available on vinyl for the first time. The LP also includes the ripping new song “DIY or Die,” a rewrite of a deleted Grow Up B-side, and comes with a music video where guitarist/vocalist KT Branscom gets doused in blood while dressed like a beauty pageant winner.

“We rerecorded our debut EP Grow Up to look back on our progress as musicians and revisit some very nostalgic songs after five years of VIAL,” the band say. “It’s like a little love letter to our younger selves.  When we first recorded Grow Up, we had very limited resources during the recording process and didn’t even use our own cables. We feel very lucky we’re able to revisit this EP now that we have access to the funds, skills, and equipment we’d always wanted to allocate toward these eight songs.”

The band will round out the year with a handful of shows in the U.S. with Destructo Disk. See the video for “DIY or Die” below.
