Days N Daze

***Veteran thrashgrass band DAYS N DAZE has spent more than a decade doing it themselves in a way few can match. From the beginning, they have forged their own path—playing acoustically so they’d have less gear and could perform anywhere, booking and promoting themselves, and self-recording and self-releasing their albums. In the rare instances when they work with outsiders, they stick with people they know. Which is why, after a dozen hardscrabble years, they’ve joined Fat Wreck Chords for their eighth full-length! Like previous Days N Daze albums, Show Me the Blueprints. crams more ideas into its 11 tracks than albums twice its length. FLYNN and SENDEJAS' rapid-fire words dig into addiction and sobriety on “LibriYUM,” “My Darling Dopamine,” and “Addvice"—obsessive-compulsive disorder on “Show Me the Blueprints.,” the current political climate on “None Exempt,” old-fashioned heartache on “Fast Track”, and death on “Goodbye Lulu Pt.2.” Show Me the Blueprints. is a bold step forward for a band that has always followed a bold path.
