"The Day Of- Awaiting Takeoff"

“ If you haven’t heard of this band before get ready because you will be soon. The songs found on Awaiting Takeoff sound like those of a well-seasoned band. All of the parts are tight and the song arrangements flow perfectly from track to track.” - Christian Rockers Online


"The Day Of- Awaiting Takeoff"

“Hailing from America, the Day Of (http://www.thedayofband.com) have mastered the art of Christian alternative rock….When you have songs as catchy and radio-friendly as this, the paint-by-numbers aspects become quite appealing. Give the Day Of a shot; you won't regret it. They may even save your life.” - Whisperin and Hollerin


"The Day Of embody the next generation of Christian Rock"

"The Christian alt scene has been around long enough now that a new generation of bands are appearing which were inspired by the first wave of self-proclaimed Jesus Freaks. Among this gradually overcrowding population is the Day Of, a tuneful foursome with a passion for Christ but also a keen sense of how to rock.” - Overground Underground


"The Day Of- Awaiting Takeoff"

“Christian rockers The Day Of could easily compete with any of today's popular spiritual acts, whether it be secular crossover stars P.O.D. or praise & worship favorites Casting Crowns. The indie hipsters will scoff; however, fans of CCM radio stations or positive rock & roll in general will be rotating this in their iPods for quite a while. I certainly am.” - INK 19


"The Day Of rock with infectious passion"

“I don’t think the Day Of will have to await taking off for very long. This is certainly one of the most polished and nicely packaged unsigned Christian alternative groups today. I sincerely doubt that this band, if they decide to stick together for the long haul, will remain unknown for that much longer. Rockers like “It Should Have Been Me” and the Coldplay-like “You Don’t Have to Do This” present a group that is on the verge of busting out of the gates - and they know it. You can hear the confidence in Nick Hickman’s voice; his passion is infectious, making you hum nearly every chorus on this CD no matter what your spiritual background is.” - Post Alternative
