Free Music Notes for As Daylight Dies
Free Music Review: ABSOLUTE!!!!!
Hit: 5 Stars
This album is perfect and a big step forward for KSE. Adam is a great producer man, every song sounds so crisp. They advanced their musicianship in every area possible, better guitar riffs, better growling and screaming, better vocals and singing, better melodies, better everything you can think of. KSE is so awesome because unlike other bands in the metalcore scene, they like to make each song as best as possible and they all sound like hits, other metalcore bands just make about 8 fillers and 1 or 2 good songs. If you've followed KSE then you wont be let down, or if you're new to KSE you will become a follower, this band does everything better than any other, and they own this genre of music, they created it, and they are still creating it where others still dont know how to make it.
Tracks
1. Daylight Dies - 5/5 - this song opens up with a cool pump up feel for about a minute then Jones just comes out growling like been in hell for 50 years and lets you know right off the bat that there sound hasnt changed.
2. This is Absolution - 5/5 - amazing song with a great riff that sounds a little like "this fire burns", chorus is amazing. Im really glad Adam decided to do more singing than he has in the past because he shines really well on this song and others.
3. The Arms Of Sorrow - 5/5 - they picked "My Curse" to be their first single, but to me........this song should have been the first single, it is amazing.
4. Unbroken - 4.5/5 - this song isnt really as catchy as the others and doesnt have that spice to it like every KSE song, it doesnt really bring anything special. This song definitely isnt a filler, but every now and then you might skip over it when you're playing the album.
5. My Curse - 5/5 - Great song. Beautiful song. Howard sings really good and screams good, and Adam has a great vocal part towards the end. This song is reeeeeaaaallllyyyy good.
6. For You - 4/5 - nothing special about this song, its alright, but nothing special.
7. Still Beats Your Name - 5/5 - song is great, has great guitars and has a good chorus.
8. Eye Of The Storm - 5/5 - awesome as hell. This song feels like KSE totally. great guitars and good vocals.
9. Break The Silence - 5/5 - this song is probably one of my favorite of the album, great guitar scale in the intro and the guitar doesnt stop...they really do good guitar work in this song, and the chorus is absolutely perfect and so crisp.
10. Desperate Times - 5/5 - different direction for KSE, but they didnt screw up by shifting off course a little. This song is a gloomy song feel, but it is a very good song, lots of growling and its actually very heavy, slowly heavy, but heavy.
11. Reject Yourself - 5/5 - this songs opening guitar riff is probably the best of the album, its nothing super fast or crazy, but its really smooth and has a really good feel to it....its just perfect. This song is amazing as well great vocals and guitars.
12. Let The Bridges Burn (bonus track available on the album only at Target) - 5/5 - I bought this album at Target and there you get a bonus track. This track is awesome, you can tell why it didnt make the album, but it is still an awesome song, I like it better than Unbroken and For You, but it is a different sound, not totally different, but its enough to not make it I guess. But I think its got great vocals and guitars and a cool feel.
Overall 5/5 because KSE has pretty much single handedly made this genre what it is, and without them, all these bands would be playing in front of 15 people somewhere for nothing. KSE still to the day is the only band who can truly forge metal and hardcore and melody. I listen to tons of bands of metal, hardcore, and nu-metal, and no band has as much heavy, as much guitar, as much growling power and screaming range, or as much melody and beautiful singing, this band is truly the ambassador of the metalcore genre.
As Daylight Dies Poster
No shortcuts. No compromises. No BS. From their modest beginnings in New England's hardcore scene to their current status as one of the most influential and inspirational forces in modern music, Killswitch Engage have played by these three simple rules. With their new, fourth album, As Daylight Dies, KsE are proving that if you keep playing the game your way, you'll eventually change the rules for everyone else. We never consciously went out of our way to be different,guitarist Adam Dutkiewicz says from the band's home base in Westfield, Massachusetts. When we started this band, we just wanted to play cool riffs and scream and sing. We liked many different sounds so we tried to incorporate all these rock and pop styles while keeping a good, solid metal mentality. Eleven songs strong, As Daylight Dies isn't just a testament to the band's original vision; it's also their strongest fusion of aggression, melody, rock and metal to date.Alternative Rock Music CDs
