Go ahead and try to define the sound of NIGHTS LIKE THESE. They are too melodic for the death metal underground, too brutal for the metal-core crowd, and definitely nowhere in the middle. Putting a tag on them is a task that many have deemed impossible and, quite frankly, the band likes it that way. Combine the skilled framework of bassist Sebastian Rios and drummer Patrick Leatherwood with the assault of guitarists Derren Saucier and Matt Qualls and top it all off with experimental and intense vocals of Billy Bottom and you get undeniably chaotic sound of NIGHTS LIKE THESE. Born out of the city that birthed rock n roll, Memphis’ NIGHTS LIKE THESE was able to build a fiercely loyal fan-base that quickly grew beyond the borders of their southern state. Their 2006 Victory Records debut, "The Faithless", pushed the experimental envelope with a wide array of melodic layers, abrasive guitar-work and bludgeoning drums. Their music, which represents the full spectrum of metal, gave the world of heavy music a much need stir. Adding to the extreme nature of their debut record is the notorious volume and force the band gives off in their live performance. NIGHTS LIKE THESE made it a goal to be the loudest band on any given tour. Having shared the road with SUICIDE SILENCE, BURY YOUR DEAD, UNEARTH and DEAD TO FALL, that’s not an easy task. But, it works. So does the obvious on-stage chemistry between the members. The result is a refreshingly bare boned performance of blood, sweat and uninhibited power. No makeup, no lights, just loud, mind blowing riffs. With the new record, "Sunlight at Secondhand", NIGHTS LIKE THESE aim to take the next leap in their evolution. The title of the album itself reveals the bands intense desire to show another side of themselves. This sophomore release, self-admittedly more mature than the last, touches on every aspect of human nature. Most notably the two sides that everyone, themselves included, possesses. The album also focuses on the only fact of life that never seems to change: the fact that life is constantly changing. “The last album doesn’t even really sound like us. We wrote those songs when I was around 17-years-old. I was just a kid. I hated everything, but I don’t think I really knew why. It’s obvious that many things have changed in all of our lives since then, and the new album reflects that,” says vocalist Billy Bottom. “We want to open our current fan bases’ minds, as well as anyone else who checks us out to a totally different style of aggressive music,” says Billy, “we believe in every note, riff, lyric and part that was put into this album. I can only hope that the fans are as into the music as we are.” Definable? Never. Unpredictable? Always. The only thing to be sure of is that NIGHTS LIKE THESE never disappoints, and refuses to conform to one style. "Sunlight at Secondhand" is in stores NOW!
