Daysend
Daysend are a band capable of competing with the best the metal world has to offer.
Just ask British metal bible Kerrang!: "Daysend know exactly when to be brutal and when to switch on the silken melodies and heart rending dynamics," it gushed, while bestowing an impressive 4Ks on the album.
Even Rolling Stone, a magazine not known renowned for its appreciation of the heavier things in life, awarded Severance four stars, saying, "There are still some bands finding brutal, blistering ways to deliver a classic metal feel… all we loved about hard rock pre-Korn."
Of course, none of these reviews would come as a surprise to anyone who's actually heard Severance. Proof of just how vital and exciting modern heavy metal can be, it blends the harshness of thrash metal with the swooning melodies of the Swedish sound while adding a unique twist; a product of the fact that Daysend live thousands of miles away from the glut of bands in Europe and America trading on the same sound. The tyranny of distance? Sometimes it's a blessing in disguise.
