The label's previous reissue of the album, in 2023, was pressed on white vinyl.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eCome On Die Young\u003c\/em\u003e is Mogwai's second album, released by Chemikal Underground on March 29, 1999, two years after \u003cem\u003eMogwai Young Team\u003c\/em\u003e. The band recorded it in three weeks with Dave Fridmann at Tarbox Road Studios in Cassadaga, New York, and it is the first Mogwai record to feature Barry Burns on piano, keyboards, guitar and flute. The band set out for a sparser sound, with The Cure's \u003cem\u003eSeventeen Seconds\u003c\/em\u003e, Slint's \u003cem\u003eSpiderland\u003c\/em\u003e, Low and Nick Drake among the reference points, and the running time grew after Chemikal Underground asked them to include more of what they had recorded.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe title comes from a Glasgow gang of the same name, and the cover shows bassist Dominic Aitchison's face, inspired by Captain Howdy in \u003cem\u003eThe Exorcist\u003c\/em\u003e. The opening \"Punk Rock:\" is built around Iggy Pop speaking in a 1977 CBC interview with Peter Gzowski. \"Cody\" carries relatively prominent vocals and Richard Formby on lap steel; Luke Sutherland adds violin elsewhere, and Wayne Myers plays trombone on the closing track. The first version of \"Helps Both Ways\" carried John Madden's commentary from the NFC Championship game of January 1998, which was used without permission and replaced with other football commentary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe album reached No. 29 on the UK Albums Chart, No. 6 on the UK Independent Albums Chart and No. 24 in Scotland. NME scored it 8 out of 10 on release, and Pitchfork gave the 2014 deluxe edition 8.3 out of 10, while AllMusic's Stephen Thomas Erlewine wrote that it might not have \"seemed as disappointing if it hadn't arrived on the wave of hype and expectation.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePunk Rock:\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCody\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHelps Both Ways\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYear 2000 Non-Compliant Cardia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKappa\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWaltz for Aidan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMay Nothing But Happiness Come Through Your Door\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOh!
