finally a song that picked me up and made me wanna move love the flow your singer sounds like the singer from PRO PAIN which I like. nice breakdown in the middle. - Adapt / Garageband.com
SIC GUITAR TONE, REALLY BEEFY AND THICK SOUND. TOTAL MIXTURE OF NOTHING FACE, MUDVAYNE AND TAPROOT. DECENT OVERALL PRODUCTION. I LIKE THE MOOD ON THE CLEANTONE BREAKDOWN THING BUT WOULD HAVE LIKED TO HEAR SOME MORE CLEAN SINGING THERE. BUT THE VOKILLS ARE NICE AND AGGRESSIVE AND I LIKE THAT. NICE SYNTH IN THE BACKGROUND. GOOD THICK CLEAR BASS TONE. SO WITH ALL THAT AND A GOOD PRODUCTION, THIS SONG = GOOD HEAVY GROOVE. I'LL RATE THAT A 10. GOOD JOB KEEP THRASHIN. - Cayugaman / Garageband.com
I love the weird detune/bendy part of the riff, sounds heavy and scary as hell. I also love the vocals...the cerse screams sound badass, and the low growls add even more badassedness. Mix sounds great. Nice job! - Taintsmasher / Garageband.com

Bio
The time has come for change. A revolutionary thought for some, a mere cliché to others; it is as much a way of life for Ontario’s Dead but Dreaming as it is a mantra. Separating their sound from the masses was not something Dead but Dreaming consciously set out to do, it was more of an intrinsic right of passage for staying true to their roots.
Dead but Dreaming’s sound is not an easy one to define; At times reaching heights of brutal riffs, blast beats, industrialized electronics and throaty screams, at others sinking into melancholy melodies, ethereal ambience and heartfelt emotion. Dead but Dreaming is about contrast; The eternal dance of day & night, the constant struggle between good & evil, the joys and pains of being human.
Assimilation best defines the evolution of Dead but Dreaming’s unique style & sound. The final product is a result of amalgamating the entire band’s ideas into one cohesive piece of art. A brotherhood of individualism; Stressing that writing is not about appeasing egos, it is about creating beautiful art.
The Burning Ammera EP is a Molotov cocktail through the window of today’s carbon copy music factory, and one that is poised to destroy the status quo of popular music. Todays stagnant music scene is in deperate need of change but Dead but Dreaming are the solution: Anarchy by means of a Musical Revolution.
A perfect balance of moods & atmospheres, Burning Ammera Takes listeners through emotional highs and lows, beginning with the title track. “Burning Ammera” is a seething editorial on the current state of World Politics, set to a blistering metal track complete with staccato time signature changes & soaring guitar solo. The tracks “Into my Head” and “Shades of Grey” boast Dead but Dreaming’s ability to seamlessly blend aggression & melody, while still maintaining hit potential. The two Singles “Stitch” and “Saybel” though sonically worlds apart, both illustrate the band’s mainstream potential. The EP is brought to its smashing end with the emotionally cathartic “Mr & Mrs Monkey” a tale of escape from an abusive family set to a punishing, grinding metal backdrop. The EP will leave you feeling like you just went through a whirlwind of emotional wreckage, emerging intact, alongside a beckoning ray of optimism, eternally…
