Are you looking for fierce mosh pits, swinging fists and the definite possibility of adding several new bruises to your collection? Then A Day To Remember are the band for you!
Despite taking a poppier turn in recent years, their newest singles still carry that same blend of post-hardcore angst and pop punk virility that has become the band’s hallmark over the past decade and beyond. However, it is their classic material where the true magic lay for the flock of fans hustled around the ever-filling Main Stage.
Digging back in amongst their old discography, the band honoured the ten-year anniversary of their seminal album ‘Homesick’ in style! From the positively anarchic (and delightfully titled) ‘I’m Made Of Wax Larry, What Are You Made Of?’, all the way to the other end of the spectrum with ‘If It Means A Lot To You’, a palpable tear-jerker that ;eft not a dry eye in the house, it was a true showcase of the band’s depth, humanity and versatility.
Continuing to please their most dedicated fans, the band resurrected deep-cut track, and looking back ever further, brought out all of our inner hardcore teenagers with the now iconic ‘Plot to Bomb the Panhandle’. Nobody escaped the mosh pit without a couple of injuries for their trouble, but manage to get thrown above the crowd and the rippling sea of bouncing heads and swaying hands was a joy to behold. Spectacular.
