Day Six

This is a Dutch symphonic metal band that is rooted in the early Nineties when schoolfriends Dolf en Robbie (at about 11 years old) founded their first band named KING OF DARKNESS but it became really serious in '97 when the two friends formed PEANUTS. In 2002 they changed their name into DAY SIX in 2002, in that year the band includes Daan Liebregts on drums, Dolf van Heugten on synthesizers, Nick Verstappen on bass and Robbie van Stiphout on guitars and vocals. DAYS SIX made two CD's until now, their sound is a blend of hardrock (METALLICA) with 'heavy progressive' (RUSH and AYREON) in a very refreshing way.

The album "Eternal Dignity" sound mature and dynamic with powerful vocals, strong and fiery guitarplay, inventive keyboardwork and a tight rhythm-section. The seven compositions deliver music that is described by the band as 'symphonic metal'. This fits more than progressive metal because DAY SIX their sound is not loaded with endless biting guitar - of flashy keyboard 'scale-acrobatics': it contains lots of fresh ideas and captivating shifting moods. An interesting album from a promising Dutch progrock band.
