AUTUMN DELAY is influenced by bands such as JR Ewing , Refused, and Every Time I Die, their music is often described as 'melodic rock 'n roll hardcore'. But don't let these references and this description fool you! Autumn Delay might walk the path of hardcore that so many have walked before them, they walk it with a different tread. The intense and unique sound has left many amazed. It's mind-gobbling to witness the growth of the band. Friend and foe are surprised to discover how much their music has matured in this short period of time. The rough, energetic sound has developed to a more complex one that builds up the tension before exploding in our faces. Whirling melodic guitar riffs are swallowed by an aggressive wall of sound. Relentlessly pounding drums and a forceful, but subtle, bass are the heartbeat on which an outraged singer screams out his anger and discontentment with the world and everything that is in it.

THE BLACK HEART REBELLION is experimental, with layers of shimmering melody coupled with stark darkness in places - like a soundtrack to a David Lynch movie. They know how to lull a listener with their delicate melodies and orchestration, then sledgehammer them into submission with rock guitar and pounding beats. Influences from bands as SIGUR ROS , JAIRUS and MONO are obvious, but still they distinct theirselves. If the words unique, innocence, passion, screams,... do match you, then this is what you're looking for.
