DAY BY DAY - Dust And Ashes (Bone White)

Day By Day is Ian Dolan - Vocals, Jared Hutcherson - Guitar / Vocals, Joey Collery - Bass / Vocals, Augie Ruiz - Guitar, Blake Kerr - Drums. First established in 2014, Day By Day pride themselves on being a no frills, do-it- yourself hardcore band. They made a name for themselves self-releasing the Never Ending Lies EP (2015), From Now On EP (2017) and Nowhere To Run (2018), which led to touring throughout America, Europe, Asia, and Australia. Now the south Florida- based band joins independent hardcore label Flatspot Records for the release of Dust and Ashes. The six song EP was recorded with Andy Nelson at Bricktop Studios in Chicago, IL, and then mastered by Brad Boatright at Audiosiege. Day By Day wanted to avoid a modern and polished sound, and instead recorded live in the studio in order to capture the raw and heartfelt sound on the EP. The tracks are massive, concise, and hard-hitting, centered around the uncertainties in life and friendships. Opener 'Respect 101' sets things up with a dark and devastating tone that blazes right into 'Until Then...It’s War'. Day By Day's triple vocal attack is a highlight on the song and across the record, lending a rigid, in-your-face hardcore sound while showing you a scowling, deeper style. The EP is also packed with unique tempo changes and groove-driven guitars, as exemplified on 'Still Bleeds' and closer 'Fakes and Liars II.' The latter track finds the band coming full circle as a follow-up to 'Fakes and Liars' off their first EP, addressing bands that are disingenuous. With the release of Dust and Ashes, Day By Day has touring on the horizon including a UK run on the Flatspot World tour alongside labelmates Speed, End It, and more. Whether on record or in a live setting, Day By Day is here to fuel the need to mosh while providing a sense of catharsis from the outside world.
