First to Die

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. The thunderous echoes of rockets detonating above Ukrainian residences forged our distinctive sound. An embodiment of amplified, refined aggression, serving as a beacon of resilience for the undaunted. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Full of Hell, Trumpeting Ecstasy Nails, You Will Never Be One of Us Nasty, Realigion Nails for uncompromising nature and genuine aggression. Full of Hell for experimenting with the darkest genres of music. Nasty for being the most banging and groovy hardcore of all. Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “ЯМА” This track embodies our interpretation of blending grindcore and hardcore, infused with vehement lyrics that articulate the collective anguish and fury of the Ukrainian populace. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? This marks the day Viktor and Pavlo crossed paths - the frontman and the bassist. United by their camaraderie and a distinctive creative outlook, they spawned the formidable force known as First to Die! Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? We want: 1) To place Ukrainian grindcore on the world map. 2) To demonstrate that this genre can and should be experimental and interesting. 3) Our songs should deliver gut-wrenching pain to imperial beasts.
