OUR LAST NIGHT

By standard definition the word “evolution” means a process of change in a certain direction. In life, people, cities, nature, art and music among other things go through their own evolutionary cycles, constantly moving forward and continually changing. New Hampshire based melodic-metal outfit Our Last Night has experienced their own such growth over the past several years. Through experience, methodically honing their craft and long arduous touring, Our Last Night has emerged matured and seasoned with their self-defining sophomore album 'We Will All Evolve.' To understand their development you have to go back a few years. Our Last Night was conceived outside the conventional scene in the sleepy town of Hollis, New Hampshire on the outskirts of Boston in 2004. After a recording an EP later that year, the band cemented its current lineup in 2006 with brothers Matt Wentworth (guitar/vocals) and a then sixteen year old prodigious growler Trevor Wentworth (vocals), Colin Perry (guitar), Alex “Woody” Woodrow (bass) and Tim Molloy (drums). Individuality and shear skill led Epitaph Records owner and president Brett Gurewitz to sign the band in 2007 and release their debut full-length album, 'The Ghost Among Us,' in 2008. Since 2008, Our Last Night has built a core army of fans. Not through flashy persona, fame fueled online gossip or monotonous scene imagery, but through their music and touring alone. Letting the music speak for itself has helped the band transcend boundaries and created limitless room for growth. Our Last Night entered the studio in late 2009 with producer Andrew Wade (A Day To Remember, Versa Emerge) to record 'We Will All Evolve'. After a month long recording session and additional mixing by David Bendeth (Breaking Benjamin, Paramore, Set Your Goals) the album was completed and ready for release in May 2010. Exploding with depth and maturity, 'We Will All Evolve' blends Trevor’s harsh, aged-to-perfection growls perfectly with Matt’s melodious, calming vocals over his and Colin’s progressive, breakneck-metal driven guitars, Woody’s heavy hitting bass and Tim’s pummeling drums. Ripping through thirty-seven plus minutes of meticulously written melodic mayhem with tracks like the furious first single, “Elephants,” the indisputably catchy “The Air I Breath,” and the bouncy pop-metal hybrid “Into the Future,” Our Last Night break out of their cocoon riff by riff, chorus by chorus rising above the limits of a so called scene. With plans to tour in support of the new album throughout 2010 including dates on the Vans Warped Tour, Our Last Night’s evolution continues as the band feeds off of experience and the incessant need to create and grow. 'Evolve' with Our Last Night in 2010!
