'Die Kreuzen' roughly translates out of German meaning 'to intersect' or 'to hybridize,' which is exactly what they did on their five LP's for Touch and Go. Their self titled debut is considered one of the most seminal hardcore records of the early 80's. As far as their second album October Fi\/e is concerned, remember that flannel shirt movement in the 90's? This is what those guys were listening to.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secretly","offers":[{"title":"Yellow Vinyl LP","offer_id":53728074105145,"sku":null,"price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0060\/2744\/4291\/files\/TG004_380px.jpg?v=1783312680","url":"https:\/\/www.goingundergroundrecords.com\/products\/pre-order-die-kreuzen-die-kreuzen","provider":"Going Underground Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
