Meatjack – Days Of Fire CD

Meatjack – Days Of Fire CD

"Days of Fire" is Meatjack's most fully realized release to date.  Listeners encounter the band melding a well-crafted melodic sensibility with their traditional storm of sonic pummeling.  Dense and multi-layered, the ten new songs invoke a roller coaster ride of aural energy, ranging from the all-out riff rock of "Sleep," to the dark and foreboding title track, from the III-era Zepplinesque acoustic instrumental "Blue," the manic ".45," to the ethereal monolith that is "Crawl."  Renowned artist Stephen Kasner provides his otherworldly art as the perfect compliment to Meatjack's music.  Founded by brothers Brian and Jason Daniloski, this hardworking, Baltimore, Maryland based band has been constantly releasing material and touring since 1993.  After a deluge of releases on 7-inch vinyl and compilations, Meatjack found a home with At A Loss Recordings in 1999 and released their first full length CD "Trust".  A split CD and 10-inch vinyl record with Prank Records artists Damad followed in 2000.  Also in 2000, infamous filmmaker John Waters used the Meatjack song "Upstart" (from "Trust" ) in his motion picture "Cecil B. Demented" ; the song appeared on the soundtrack along with songs by The Locust, Moby, and Liberace.
