Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 8.5/10
The day will always arrive, the anticipation of it is what drives you to the point of agitated madness, you count down the hours, think about the glorious moment of release, but it will soon dawn upon you that the eagerness of the day’s approach is what gives the moment meaning, that Waiting For The Day is a ritual of its own making and raises the image of what is to come to a truly special place.
For London’s KilliT, Waiting For The Day is one driven by more than keenness, it is built upon the raging zeal of a band that has caught the bit between their teeth and refuses to let go. The sense of Rock and Metal combined is one that is music to the ears and it creates a fervour, stamps down the authority with a large industrial feeling of vengeance and yet it still builds, anticipation of the next chord delivered, the striking pose and the group dynamic making the band’s new single one of intensity and pure concentration.
There are always those that maintain that Rock is dead, that the hum of the electric beast is nothing more than its strangled growl as it finds its life draining under the pressure of modern expectation; yet KilliT defy that unfounded logic, they banish the dream of those who would see the genre’s early demise. Each finely delivered scream from the band’s instruments standing as a testament to the siren like call which catches the listener in the mood to lift their mood and play alongside the heroes on the stereo.
We are all guilty of Waiting For The Day, some of us continue waiting, others grasp the feeling with both hands and shake it till the fruit that it spawns is within our reach, ready to be tasted, gratified by the graft in which it took; never postpone the feeling, listen and revel in the sound of KilliT.
