The Days End

S/T

In an era when musical climates change at the drop of a hat, The Days End is a type of anachronism.  Their music hails back to a time in the not too distant past, before "emo" became a fashion statement, and electro-clash turned the indie scene into a perverse dance party.  The Days End rejects this "de-evolution", and steps back a bit, relying on fundamental elements to experiment liberally.  They use their two guitars, and their one-man rhythm section to full capacity, exploring the sonic array that a punk aesthetic, jazz sensibility and the lack of a bass guitar make possible.  The sound that results pays homage to fin de siècle bands like Shellac and June of '44 by upholding the relentlessly driven layered post-hardcore which they pioneered, and bringing it into a new millennium.
