What's that lousy sound I hear? 
It could only be one thing and that is music 
Don't let that music get to you 
First it takes your mind and then your soul 
Copper strings and bows comprised of horsehair 
Don't let that music... 

I hate music 
(Rock) 
(Jazz) 
I hate music 
(Classical) 
I hate music 
(Folk) 

Octaves will rise, higher and higher 
Until they break my heart in two 
Singers will sing, making my head ring 

I admit 
That only the angels (only the angels) 
Yes, only the angels heralding the trumpets of doom 
can make music sweet enough for me to hear 
Yes, I admit 
What's that lousy sound I hear? 
It could only be one thing and that is music 
Don't let that music get to you 
First it takes your mind and then your soul 
Copper strings and bows comprised of horsehair 
Don't let that music...</i>

Raleigh, NC’s Gray Young is the ultimate musical paradox. Somewhere in between soaring, atmospheric riffs and nuanced, delicate melodies, the band navigates extremes like a weathered mountain climber. Gray Young’s songs seethe with intensity and susceptibility, emerging in Technicolor, wielding energetic bass lines and intricate chord progressions that flow seamlessly. Unlike artists whose instrumentals are merely bolsters between hooks, Gray Young’s are a constant push and pull between calm and chaos, and every climactic swell bears the power of a riptide.

With the release of their first album, Firmament, in 2009, the band quickly became known for the roiling tension of their musical creations, delivering build-and-release epics in three to four minute sprints rather than marathons. Their second release, 2010’s staysail, was a departure from their previous effort, reigning in some of the band’s melodic squall and allowing the vocals to play a more prominent role.

The secret to the band’s sound can be found in the delicate balance struck between its parts. Singer/guitarist Chas McKeown’s shimmering guitar and haunting vocals wrap around bassist Dan Grinder’s melodic, driving basslines, while the propulsive attack of drummer Jeff Dopko lays a foundation upon which to build. Gray Young’s songs are created as a unit – each member’s contribution equally vital to the atmosphere the band creates.

With its new album, Bonfire, Gray Young is at its fullest and most focused, returning to the mostly instrumental mesh of mood and melody that made the band’s early work so promising. But this is no retread. This is the sound of a band moving ahead into exciting territory with an assured sense of what they are capable of. Bonfire, with its nimble balance of U2 structure and Explosions In The Sky ambiance, is a dynamic effort that highlights the band’s ability to create a mood and expose all of the complexities within. This is Gray Young at their best.
