A VACANT AFFAIR * DEBUT ALBUM END 2008

Singa-CORE

About Me


"Hardcore/metal/melodic/emo type band, very solid stuff.."
- Derek Hess of Strhess Clothing

Everyone has scars to show.
Evolved from genres such as alternative, emo, hardcore, metal and its variations, now comes the massive of A Vacant Affair. This is music at its most confrontational, depicting themes of depression, despair, and the discovery of hope in trying times.
"The time has come to recover what we've lost" declares vocalist/lyricist Matt in rousing fashion in the epic 7 minute opus The Departure, taken from their 5-track debut EP, over soaring angular guitar lines strewn like bullets across a battlefield, further emphasized with pinpoint drum and bass lockdowns.
The EP is the journey in which you choose to take.
These are the scars that have only made us stronger.
This is A Vacant Affair.
