"Brass meets strong rhythm and guitars, resulting in a dusty sound reminiscent of bigger cities in summer, not to be found in Holland at all. They surprise you with every turn they make on their instrumental journey where trumpet, guitars, bass and drum alternately do battle and make peace and love."\nWe vs. Death is a Dutch instrumental post-rock band, founded in 2000. Since then the band has put out a few releases and has been touring throughout Europe, Canada and Russia.\nHistory\nIn the second half of 2000 a couple of like-minded musicians find each other at Utrecht University in Netherlands and decide to start a band. The band's name was initially Dylman's Disco Method, but after a while was changed to We vs. Death.\nAlmost right away they choose to make instrumental music, that by lack of a better term can be described as post-rock. Other bands categorised as post-rock are for example Explosions in the Sky, Slint, Mogwai, Tomà n and Godspeed You! Black Emperor.\nIn the Netherlands We vs. Death is currently the most successful exponent of the genre, that nowadays becomes more popular among bands.\nSince they started the band has been playing venues on a regular basis, and since 2003 they have been playing outside the Netherlands as well. In the meantime they played venues in Belgium, England, Canada, France, Russia, Poland, Denmark and Germany; and in the near future a tour through the south of Europe will take place. We vs. Death alternately plays large venues like Paradiso, 013, Vera and Tivoli and small-scale venues and squats like the ACU and the OCCII.\nAlthough We vs. Death is surely a band in the traditional sense of the word, they also try to seek collaboration with other creative disciplines. So far they worked together with performance-artist Jeremiah Day, theatre-designer Theun Mosk, video-artist Boudewijn Rosenmuller and Graphic Designer Roel Dalhuisen.\nDiscography\n7-inch\nTheir first vinyl-single was released in 2001 on the Zabel Muziek music-label. This single contained four songs:\nMK Ultra\nHMV\nMK Ultra\nHeron\nSplit-CD with Tom Sweetlove\nIn 2003 the band released a split-CD with the Belgian post-rock band Tom Sweetlove. Each band contributed four songs for this release, titled The Message Is, that was released on the Dutch Zabel Muziek-label and the Belgian Matamore-label. The We vs. Death-songs on this CD are:\nMy Dog is Watching Me\nCity Council Cosmos\nConsertina\nWave Goodbye With Your Little Hand\nSplit-CD with Green Concorde\nIn 2004 the band decided upon releasing a split-CD again, this time together with the Danish indie rock band Green Concorde. On this album, released on Zabel Muziek and Eglantine Records, appeared the following We vs. Death songs:\nPictures From Stellenbosch\nWorkers Are Referred To As "Hands"\nWake 44\nWe Too Are Concerned \u002F We Are Too Concerned\nAfter releasing the 7" EP en two split-CD's, the band released their full-length debut in Spring 2006. The CD-package also contained a DVD and a booklet with a short story from artist Jeremiah Day. The CD, again released on the Zabel Muziek-label contains eight tracks:\nAnd How To Translate It\nPictures From Stanford\nSnow Cushioned The Fall \nOne Light Will Do\nThomas Corner And The Valley Houses\n(Yes,) We Went To Novgorod\nMother And Father And Me\nFieldfire\nLine-up\nAlthough it has undergone a few changes in the beginning, and has been stable for years, untill recently, when guitarist Bart de Kroon left the band and was replaced with Thomas Sohilait.
