NO LONGER WITH US

No longer with us is an idea Im toying with, we'll see if it goes anywhere. Basically every week or so Ill do a little spotlight on a band that had an influence on my music taste or at least was music I enjoyed now or at one time. These bands are as the title states, no longer with us, not with dead members, but the band is dead itself.

This Weeks NO LONGER WITH US, the first of its kind, focuses on a band I discovered in grade 10, and that is Days Away, they're nothing out of this world by any means, but they still had some good music, which helped me through some rough times, my favourite track by them would probably be God or Mars I used to run alot at night through the neighbourhoods near where I lived, and would always start or end with God or Mars, it always gave me that little extra push I needed. Check out the bands myspace and give them a listen yourself, hopefully you dont like them too much because unfortunatly, they are dead.

.........luckily for you many of the previous members of Days Away have formed a new band, GOOD OLD WAR, and are actually starting to get some of the well deserved publicity. Although they dont sound exactly the same, they still retain some of that Days Away feel.
