Lately - by Day of Fire

Sick song... "sick" as in awesome.
DoF is based out of Nashville, TN.  The band's story starts with vocalist Josh Brown (from Jackson, TN) being a rock star in the 90's - drugs included.  He started songwriting at age 15 & acquired a serious drug habit then, too.  At 17, he became the singer for Full Devil Jacket & they scored the record deal 5 years later.  However, "Brown had a major crash: a heroin overdose in an Orlando bathroom put his career on hold while he rehabbed and rethought his life".  A few years later, Brown, started up another band, & it eventually ended up with guitarist Joe Pangallo & bassist brother Chris Pangallo (who, as I found out a year ago, later played on a track for Krystal Meyer's latest album "Make Some Noise" - random trivia… lol), & drummer Zach Simms, who all formed Day of Fire.  They released their self-titled debut on October 26th, 2004 (to which, "Brown "penned most of their… debut in his mom's garage").  From there, they went on to release "Cut & Move" in 2006, & their latest, "Losing All", on January 26th, 2010.  But, on June 8th, 2010, they announced an indefinite hiatus after Razor & Tie (the record label they were with) pulled tour support out.  This song is from "Losing All".
