Counting Days Posts "Prison Of Misery" Video
Counting Days return with a new video for "Prison of Misery" and the first featuring new member, Curtis Ward (Ex-Bring Me The Horizon).
”It was the first time I had performed with any of the guys.” Curtis explains “but it was a headbang fest and made me psyched to play shows.”
The "Prison of Misery" track is taken from debut album "Liberated Sounds" and the video was shot in an old underground theatre in North London that was turned into a car park but is being restored to its former glory.
Talking about the location guitarist Charlie Wilson adds, “I was lucky enough to go to an exclusive Skepta show there about a year ago and knew it would be a great location for the video.” He continues, “The lyrics for the song are influenced by the feeling of depression and anxiety, and how you can tear yourself apart from it."
The "Liberated Sounds" album was released on Mascot Records/Mascot Label Group on October 16th, 2015. More...
Counting Days Recruits Curtis Ward
Counting Days is thrilled to announce that former and original Bring Me The Horizon guitarist Curtis Ward will be joining the band on a full time basis after replacing Bobby Daniels for the recent Hacktivist and Crossfaith support shows.
Curtis was instrumental in the two first Bring Me The Horizon albums "Count Your Blessings" and "Suicide Season." Talking about joining the band he says:
“My friend told me to check out the new album a few months ago and was really in to it. The band mixes my favourite parts of metal and hardcore and use them to create an awesome sound. I've been trying to make own band for a while now and have been struggling to find people who can commit the time. So when Charlie asked me if I'd like to try out for Counting Days I jumped at the chance. The songs are real fun to play and I can't wait to perform them live. Plus we have been writing new songs together already!"
Guitarist Charlie Wilson adds: "I've been friends with Curtis for a while, we met through mutual friends at hardcore shows around the time he first moved to London, We got talking recently and he told me he wanted to get a new band together, by chance we were short of a guitarist so we met up for a rehearsal. His style of playing and taste in music was perfect for Counting Days we're really stoked on bringing him into the band and feel he will be a great addition to our live performances and writing process!"

Counting Days Streams Full Album
London metalcore quintet Counting Days will release debut album "Liberated Sounds" on October 16 via Mascot Records/Mascot Label Group (Black Label Society, Gojira, Joe Bonamassa).
Produced by Fredrik Nordstrom (At The Gates, Arch Enemy, In Flames, Opeth, Architects, Bring Me the Horizon) at his Studio Fredman in Gothenburg, Sweden, the "Liberated Sounds" subject matter hits on a number of recurring themes; mortality, relationships and religion all return throughout.
Elaborating on the lyrical content, Thomas Debaere reveals: “This wasn’t a conscious effort, they are just things that really struck a chord. Even the title, 'Liberated Sounds,' was inspired by the feeling we all got from writing it, five mates writing music without restrictions or judgement.”
