Days of The New

Anyone else like this band at all? For some odd reason I'm hooked on them and they're my first choice whenever I want something non-metal. I think all three of their albums were very solid. Especially the self titled orange debut. The acoustic melodies they create and song structure really hit hard for me..anyone else?

Honestly I have only heard one song from them, but I really like it! Isn't that group Tantric the old Days of the New band that got fired? Either way, I like them too.

I enjoy them. I don't really have any of their cd's but I d/l a lot of their songs.

Travis Meeks pretty much is Days of the New he did most of the work on the second album..guitars,bass,drums etc..The guys in Tantric were all members on the first Days of the New album but for some odd reason there was some extreme disagreements and Meeks fired all of them and pretty much did everything himself on the second album..on the third he had a new group of people lined up I believe..either way..I like all three of the albums a great deal..

I loved the first album,the idea of an all acoustic album in an age of cookie cutter rock seemed to appeal to me.

They lost me completely with that second album.Havent heard the third one.If its anything like the second,I wont bother.

Yes, I do agree the second one is very much different. I like it though. They did however, go a more back into their roots in the third one. I suggest you check it out. It's not all completely acoustic either..90% is acoustic and there's a bit of electric in there too.

cool,i'll have to check it out sometime.

I like Days of the New a lot. The first album is just great. I thought it was cool how they did an acoustic album but it didn't always have that mellow or soft sound, like an unplugged version or something.

My thoughts exactly, although it is all acoustic and melodic it is probably one of the most pissed off records I own..
