Rising D.C. Alt-Rock Group Day Aches Release "Everything Blu" Announce New LP & Signing To Really Rad Records
"...mixing early 90s grunge-era melodies with crunchier guitars and driving tempos that end up evoking modern bands like Soul Blind and Drug Church at the same time that they bring up mental images of Screaming Trees or Stone Temple Pilots circa 'Purple'." - RVA Magazine

About Day Aches
In the midst of a vibrant resurgence in guitar music, Day Aches emerges as a compelling force, rekindling the raw authenticity that fueled rock's potent reign. Roaring to life from the vibrant Virginia/DC hardcore scene, the band crafts a unique mosaic of emotion through introspective and dynamic soundscapes.
Their debut LP, "One Last Dream Before Dying" emerges as a poignant and immersive journey through the landscapes of decay, growth, and transformation. Each track on this album delves into the intricate emotions that accompany the unraveling of relationships and the passage of time. From the haunting opening of 'Hide', which paints a psychedelic picture of loss and acceptance, to the emotionally charged crescendo of 'Wish', where fuzzed-out reverb-laden guitars and roaring vocals intertwine to convey the never-ending longing, the album's sonic tapestry becomes a mirror to the thematic core. The ethereal soundscapes of tracks like 'Lavender' and 'Merger Theory' beautifully capture the dreamy nostalgia that accompanies the idea of letting go, while 'Velvet Response' boldly delves into the depths of depression and anxiety, seamlessly blending grunge and shoegaze influences.
Vocalist Drew Lambert On The Track
"What started as a riff from our bassist Brady, quickly evolved into a fully-fledged song after a few writing sessions between him and I. This might make it the most collaborative effort on the album and it's also Brady's first contribution since joining the band. This serves as another great mix of inspirations that really pushes the sound of Day Aches further along."
