Steadfast Records: The First Two Seven Inches

July 12, 2024

Steadfast Records is thrilled to announce a compilation of our first two seven-inch releases. After nearly three decades these iconic tracks reunite in a gorgeous new package "Steadfast Records The First Two Seven Inches."

Bringing together tracks from "The Tie That Binds," a seminal split 7” featuring Zao and Outcast from Dayton, OH, released in 1995, and "Treadwater…," a cherished split 7” showcasing Zao and Through and Through from BC, Canada, released shortly after in 1996. The audio has been meticulously remastered by Adam Boose at Cauliflower Audio. The first half of the album includes the Zao track, "Security," intended for the original 7” but omitted due to time constraints. (This track later appeared on a CD reissue).

Presented with brand new artwork, and packaged in a beautiful jacket printed on uncoated stock, accompanied by a double-sided 12” insert.
