Years Apart

With its music as diverse in content
and style as its members are in age, Years Apart is a formidable band,
undoubtedly worth a try. They are a four-piece hard
rock band who use heavy, melodic undertones stemming from 80's & current
hard rock seamlessly infused with jazz, rap, grunge and some other unidentified
ingredients, fused tightly to create a nostalgic, yet distinctly original &
well-oiled machine. The band focuses on creating and sharing great music.
Indeed that is the focus of nearly every band, but holding tightly to this
simple yet effective strategy has yielded very impressive results for Years
Apart. While their focus is simple, the music of Years Apart is quite complex.
It takes its listener on a journey that transcends the gamut of human emotion
with intense, dredging lyrics and music. Some of their songs elicit the gushier
emotions, such as the melancholic ballad "Come Down to Me" with
lyrics drenched in pain & sorrow experienced after losing a loved one, and
the much happier "Daddy's little Angel” which as the title suggests, tugs
at the heart strings. Others go furiously for the hard emotions, such as “Dom
V”. A suspenseful & sinister song of intense anger triggered by pointless
violence, provoking a sense of rage which is subsequently quelled with a
delivery of justice in "Redemption". Finally, the listener is faced
with emotionally subjective, yet thought-provoking content in “Armed” which
denotes the grim thoughts travelling through the mind of a soldier. All this
and much more comes to life with this band. Once you are fully entrenched with
the rhythm and start wailing away on your air guitar, you will be thrilled that
you came along for the ride!
