DAYLIGHT DIES
Dismantling Devotion

Candlelight USA

Four years in the making, it says here. I say they could have kept it in the oven just a little bit longer. The cheerfully monikered Daylight Dies are spiral architects from Sweden who play progressive power-doom-death that shoots for depressive and melancholic, but mostly sounds noisy and complicated. This is not the kind of stuff I can imagine anyone listening to on purpose, but than again, I’m not European, so maybe it’s really a masterpiece, and I’m too much of Plebian to know any better. I do, however, think it’s pretty funny when a band with cookie monster vocals says “It’s the most mature work we’ve written to date”.

D is for doom, and that’s good enough for Daylight Dies.  ________________________________________________________
