These guys are like boyband meets metal. Their mixture of pop, metal and electronic is unique. Check out ‘Anything at All’, ‘Losing You’ (their most popular song), and ‘Beautiful Nightmare’ by them.
dead by april has been through quite a few line up changes, as most metal bands from gothenburg, sweden, does but they have kept their unique sound throughout their entire time as band. their sound style is like the "gothenburg sound" melodic death metal style but turned to 11 and fused with metalcore. pontus hjelm, the clean vocalist and guitarist and producer, has been switching up what he does in the band quite a bit. originally he was just doing guitar and keyboard parts but he started doing vocals because their starting vocalist, jimmie strimmel, couldnt do the harsh vocals and clean vocals at the same time live as it was recorded in studio. christopher kristensen, the current harsh vocalist, is originally from another band called dEMOTIONAL (yes, its reversed capitalised), a band he is still member of. if you liked this, i think you will also like dEMOTIONAL, dEMO doesnt rely as heavily on the the electronical instrumentals (aka synths) as dead by april and their guitar is more soft and melodic.
@dave there's some really good more songs from them one song I listen to when I was going through my divorce it's called not crying over you by dead by april too it is very good too
Hey Dave, if you're into Hip Hop and Rap and want to check out something different, I'd suggest looking up E-Dubble. He was local for me (Philly and Baltimore area) and I grew up with his music. He sadly passed away in 2017, but E-dubble doesn't get a lot of reactions and I'd like for his music to touch more people if possible. His Freestyle Friday series is 54 total songs that he made from 2010-2011 every week using samples from multiple genres, and there are some real bangers. These are songs you'll only find on youtube bc of copyright, but other than these he did release a few albums and multiple singles that you can check out. I realize you must get a lot of requests, but just wanted to in a way shoot my shot with this. Love the content as always Dave! Keep it up!
