What other people think
"Original, haunting, huge, brilliant. We run out of superlatives when we
talk about this band. The GDY are quite simply British music at it's best
LoudNews Magazine March 2008
“The Good Die Young are a band that are destined to go places. All the elements of great British bands we know and love – they already sound familiar but with a freshness that makes them stand out from the crowd.”
John Tolson – Ridings FM April 08
"The Good Die Young hit the stage with all the beer-swilling attitude of a thousand Britpop bands of yesteryear. Ladies left, right and centre whistled and cheered for the lads, testament to the raw power of testosterone and guitars."
Tom Newton - Wakefield Express
"The Keeper is goin down a storm in Trio lads. We've just put it on our top 10 tunes of the Month"
Trios - Headingley Jun'07
"Whether you believe them to be the second coming or not, their belief in themselves and their music is unshakeable - an admireable quality in a current climate of audition-led bands by-numbers and celeb wanabes "
Andy McNally - Yorkshire Evening Post June'07
“Like a musclebound big brother to Embrace with a post punk edge, this four piece look destined to be raising lighters aloft much further afield than their native Leeds in the coming months.”
BCB 106.6FM
"...sounds like The Verve multiplied by 10, on stilts, and twice the size, huge basically"
Ben Bradford - Yorkshire Evening Post May'07
"Stone Roses at their hidden softness and The Music at their bellowing echoness, The Good Die Young are an exciting prospect indeed"
The Good Die Young is a Leeds (UK) band comprising of Christopher Stocks Lead Vocals, Paul Young Guitars, Martyn Brier Bass and Paul Key Drums.
The Good Die Young have a unique sound combining acoustic based melodies, stripped down electric soul with indie/rock attitude. Formed in December 2005,
they have an impressive list of live performances under their belt with a sound that has evolved with a depth, emotion and power, built to break both the heart and the floorboards.
The strength of their live shows and production has seen them support high profile acts as The Charlatans, The Twang, and a UK tour supporting Greg Griffin (Proud Mary)
By going back to their roots, The Good Die Young have exposed a hidden skill for taking bittersweet lyrics, stripped down soulful melodies, and turning them into powerful songs with the familiarity and drive of a seasoned established band.
At home both with moments of brooding emotion and soaring wall of sound energy, The Good Die Young play their instruments with aggression and an attitude to die for.
