Boys Sets Fire: Chad Istvan (vocals, guitar); Rob Avery (vocals, bass); Nathan Gray (vocals); Josh Latshaw (guitar); Matt Krupanski (drums).
Recorded at Ocean Studios, Burbank, California; Cello Studios, Hollywood, California; Mama Joe's Recording, North Hollywood, California.
As has been demonstrated with the rise of nu-metal, anyone can plug in, churn out distorted riffs, and grouse about being bored and angst-ridden. However, Boysetsfire ignores all the minor qualms and instead uses TOMORROW COME TODAY to focus on the bigger, sociopolitical issues of the world. Recorded in three months and produced by former Ugly Kid Joe guitarist Dave Fortman, these songs are crisp in execution and infused with an above-average degree of melodicism not normally found in an aggro rock album.
Singer Nathan Gray leads this Delaware quintet in tackling subjects ranging from the erosion of civil rights by way of the Patriot Act ("Release the Dogs") to the proliferation of corporate interests more interested in profit than in the well-being of consumers ("Dying on Principle"). Other taboo topics approached with a healthy dose of crunching guitar and pounding rhythms are organized religion (the epic "Bathory's Sainthood"), spousal abuse (a borderline pop-punk "White Wedding Dress"), and America's foreign policy in a post-9/11 world (the harmonious "Foundations to Burn"). Limited editions of TOMORROW COME TODAY include a bonus DVD containing over an hour's worth of live footage.
