EVENT PREVIEW: Days Fade unload at The Blind Dog on Thursday!

Days Fade
The Blind Dog
, 761 Ouellette Ave.
Thursday April 16, Doors at 8pm
Tickets are $3 at the door, All-Ages


They are the undisputed kings of Windsor's local hardcore scene. They've played with everyone who's anyone in town, from Fiftywatthead to The Dead's Elite, and shared the stage with many national and international heavyweights, including a recent show with Walls of Jericho and The Red Chord.

They've seen members come and go, but in the world of Days-Fucking-Fade, the band must go on and will go on, and if that means restocking the soldiers with new recruits, then so be it.

Bassist Ryan Barron (who formerly sang for the band) is a promotional giant. He runs Rose City Promotions and has been doing a great job securing many national and international hardcore artists to come through Windsor, putting on some of the best All-Ages shows this city has seen...well...ever. The list of bands he's brought through are impressive: Walls of Jericho, The Red Chord, Ion Dissonance, Tony Danza Tap Dance Extravaganza...the list goes on and on.

And all the while he does this, he's pushing his own band, Days Fade, to the top of the Canadian hardcore scene. They've recently added a new guitarist to the mix but that hasn't slowed them down any. They've got dates booked all over the place and are about to start a small tour in May with Boston's Seeker Destroyer and Indiana's Saints Never Surrender, hitting Sarnia, Toronto, St. Catharines and more during the month of May. The tour starts in Windsor with a date at The Chubby Pickle (762 Ouellette Ave.) on May 15th.

But you can catch Days Fade as they do a little tune-up this Thursday when they throw an all-ages show at The Blind Dog (761 Ouellette Ave.), starting at 8 pm. And for only $3, it's a pretty good deal. It's only a matter of time until these guys are picked up by one of the many hardcore labels out there or join a larger tour.

Days Fade are simply unstoppable.
