Check Out This Fresh Noize!

Candlelight Red

It’s been a while since the last time I wrote a ”Fresh noize post”, but now it’s time for me to yet again cast some light on a newer band called ”Candlelight Red”.

Candlelight Red is a band from Williamsport, Pennsylvania, US. The band formed in 2011 and consists of the four members Ryan Hoke, vocals, Jeremy Edge, guitar and background-vocals, Jamie Morral, bass and background-vocals and Tanner Wayne on drums. 

The band have so far released two studio albums, ”The Wreckage” 2011, and ”Reclamation”, 2013 and one EP, ”Demons”, 2012.  Both ”Demons” and ”Reclamation” were produced by Morgan Rose (drummer in Sevendust whom they also have toured with).

I especially like two songs, ”Demons” from their EP and ”Closer” from their debut album ”The Wreckage”. You can listen to ”Closer” and even download it from the mini-player below, where you also can listen to samples of their other songs and find more than one new favorite song. You can also watch the video for the first single ”Feel the Same” from their latest album,  ”Reclamation” in the clip below. The video was directed by Wade Spencer and the band wanted to give their fans and listeners a glimpse of the life on the road. It also introduces Tanner Wayne as the new drummer in Candlelight Red.

I like how the music in Candlelight Red’s songs matches the lyrics and Ryan’s voice. The melodies in ”Closer” for example, builds up a nice mood that makes you listen more. Both ”Closer” and ”Demons” are good metal songs without being to aggressive metal.
