Temporality
Diamond Drive

"Temporality", the new album by DIAMOND DRIVE, is a grittier, more aggressive album than those before it. There is an equal blend of energy and grit that is then enhanced with melody. Melody and aggression is something DIAMOND DRIVE has been making work for them for quite some time.
The band has released three EPs since 2006, and because of their unique approach to music, they have been hard to label by critics. All EPs were received with high regards from fans and critics alike. Throughout the journey of this band, they have experienced great setbacks as well as triumphs, such as when their original lead singer was replaced. The new material was more rock meets metal in an astounding way. Once again the band was received with remarkable marks.
Their drummer later exited the band, was replaced and so began their trek of making their very first full length album, so named "Temporality". Their journey included playing with more known bands including, but not limited to Arch-Enemy and Suffocation. Recording, which started in 2012 with the help of Jacob Bredahl and Tue Madsen, who have in their own careers working with bands such as THE BURNING, KOLDBORN, THE HAUNTED and MNEMIC. After all their hard work and determination starting in 2006, I believe DIAMOND DRIVE has created an amazing first album. I would definitely recommend this cd to my Metal and Rock friends alike. If you have never heard a DIAMOND DRIVE song, you don't know what you are missing! Definitely pick up "Temporality" and give it a listen!
