After a 2011 that saw them on the rise in the NYC scene, The Veda Rays are getting ready to take things on the next level in 2012, when they will be releasing a new EP entitled "Die Fast" in the spring. As an early promotional move they are releasing a free song from that EP, entitled "Old Long Since Now", which was written at the end of the aughts and was always intended to be some kind of "New Years Eve song". The band definitely strikes the right balance of holiday cheerfulness and attitude here, creating a rock track that stimulates those kind of positive year end "life recaps" that can propel our existence towards a better future.
