Days Away - "Mirrors" (2005)

Days Away are an indie band from Pennsylvania who play an interesting brand of progressive rock. The band started out by self-releasing a few EPs eventually garnering the attention of Lava Records, a major label. After finishing their debut Mapping an Invisible World, the band left Lava and opted to go the indie route, signing with Fueled By Ramen, the label known for releasing albums by Fall Out Boy and The Academy Is… among others. Being on that label, some might tend to lump Days Away in that genre, but their music doesn’t really fall into that niche. Their sound is far more expansive and somewhat spacey when compared to their then label mates. Days Away have since left Fueled By Ramen and have recently self-released a new EP entitled Ear Candy for the Headphone Trippers. You can check out the lead track “Wish” on their Myspace page. Today’s tune is probably the coolest one on their debut. It features big guitars and soaring melodies and is more than enough reason for you to be interested what these guys have in store.
