Release date: 2015

“We sound like Slipknot punching Terror while crying about getting dumped.”

Counting Days are a London based band comprising of members and ex members of Heights, TRC, Last Witness, More Than Life, Prowler, Rough Hands and more. With Thom Debaere bringing his unique style, Counting Days has become the school example of an exciting brand of metalcore that fuses Thrash, British Heavy Metal and Hardcore. After having already spent years individually cutting their teeth on the road and in the studio they self-released their debut EP ‘The War of The Wolf’ which received rave reviews across the board in mainstream press. In May 2015 they entered Studio Fredman in Gothenburg, Sweden to record their debut album ‘Liberated Sounds’ with Fredrik Nordstrom. In ‘Liberated Sounds’, Counting Days are to unleash one of the most formidable records of the year that will twist, turn and refuse to leave your consciousness.

“Quite simply, Counting Days are the most exciting metal band to come from the UK since BMFV." - Terry Bezer, Team Rock

"While they might boast pedigree in UK hardcore that is second-to-none, Counting Days are, first and fore mostly, band who have the spirit of modern heavy metal etched into their veins. Combining ultra-melodic At The Gates style riffing with neck-snapping breakdowns and euphorically bombastic bounce, they are already shaping up to be one of the brightest emerging talents we have seen for a very long time. Do not sleep on them, you will regret it." - Tom Doyle, Kerrang.

"I got contacted through the guys at Fredman studios, I know these guys pretty well, and trusted their judgement in checking this UK band out that were recording there. I was hit by the great mix of old school hardcore and crude death metal tone of the song. Did I want to come down and throw down some vocals? Hell yes! Turned out the vocals that I was going to use as a guide track were super ferocious and ass kicking, so that really fired me up to deliver on the highest level. These guys were super professional and I am sure that they will go far. Can´t wait to check out the full album when it´s out!" – Tomas Lindberg (At The Gates)
