"Think Don Caballero crossed with early-'80s King Crimson and you won't be far off..."
Product Description
Last fall, By the End of Tonight released their debut EP, 'Fireworks on Ice,' to resounding acclaim. It also met deserved criticism for its drum-heavy no-fi production. With the arrival of their debut full-length, 'A Tribute to Tigers,' the band refines its strengths and strengthens its weaknesses to create a transcendent melting pot of rock and metal. Produced in an actual recording studio (albeit for only $300), the four boys of By the End of Tonight almost stand still for a couple moments during the album. The scorching metal riffs of 'Fireworks on Ice' are distilled through hyper-emotional crescendos and vivid, playful melodies. The drums are more subdued, and the controlled chaos propels the dynamics of each song to new heights. By the End of Tonight have done what few others have achieved: giving virtuosity heart, and letting that heart determine the pulse of their music. They have a rare gift for shrugging off genres and finding the concentrated emotional! core of every melody they play, all the while keeping your eyelids glued to your forehead.
