Converge - Axe To Fall *EXCLUSIVE*

This is a Closed Casket exclusive limited to 500 copies on Golden chip in Cyan vinyl.Formed in the winter of 1990 in Boston, MA, during the rise and subsequent fall of the legendary Boston hardcore scene, Converge are unarguably one of the most important bands in the history of aggressive music.

Releases such as Petitioning the Empty Sky (1997), When Forever Comes Crashing
