Teeming with punchy melodies, unbridled vocals, and splashy synths, Living Days is poised to charm the socks off legions of music lovers with the upcoming release of their first full-length album, Make Out Room. (Release date not provided) The audacious quintet of self-proclaimed "love terrorists" is fronted by the lionhearted Stephonik Youth, whose riptide of rapid-fire charisma is undeniably memorable and features an assemblage of indie music all-stars, including former members of Matisyahu, and sci-fi thrash band AQUI, Lee Scratch Perry, and touring members of Coco Rosie.
With a sound that brings to mind a cross between Gary Numan, Yeasayer, and The Cure, Living Days echo the spirit of the broken-hearted teens that are confidently hopeful that love is still out there for the taking. While laying down the tracks for Make Out Room, Living Days collaborated with talented producer and former chief engineer of The Magic Shop, Matt Boynton (MGMT, The Butthole Surfers, The Lemonheads). The result is a triumphant collection of infectious pop gems such as "Go Oblivion", "Bury The World", and the piercingly emotive "Let's Kiss".
This spring, Living Days will join Blank Dogs, White Ring, Liturgy, Mirror Mirror, and many more at The Pendu Organization's NY Eye & Ear Fest III on May 22 at the Knitting Factory in Brooklyn, NY. Stay tuned for more details about upcoming performances and album release plans.
