“What an interesting band “These Reigning Days” are. Their music is extremely textured with many, many layers and is so epic, it immediately makes you think it should be in a film and probably one on a giant screen, at that. Theirs is no prissy, polite excuse for rock music. It’s powerful, within “Joe Sansone” one of the most powerful drum sounds I have heard in years.
Johnny Finnis, the bass player, provides a really solid, yet dextrous carpet and between bass and drums, the two of them build an amazing foundation on which the music is built. Dan Steer, who is the song writer, lead vocalist, keyboard player and guitarist bit of the band, is kept really busy, but copes with his workload more than admirably. His sharp, acidic guitar sails above the music and his vocals cut through that to make for a really exciting sound.”
