There is nowhere to run. You cannot escape the torrent of 23RAINYDAYS. Their sound is a lush, impeccably mixed brand of rock described by the band's membership as post punk dance metal. This Washington, DC based band assails you with the heartfelt honesty of emo, the classic melancholy of 80s new wave, and the cutting edge of modern rock. The result is music that has blended mass appeal into one thoughtful sound.

Behind / Ahead
There is a wry humor that is evident throughout the band's unofficial mission statement "23RAINYDAYS writes music that we hope will end up in John Hughes' films when John Hughes makes a triumphant return to Hollywood... We write music that kids can relate to... well... mainly kids in black." They joke about a narrow genre that belies the true universal appeal of their music. On the timeline, 23RAINYDAYS references the classic new wave hooks and the most modern of the nu new wave, while grasping the pure rock in between.

Notches in the Belt
23RAINYDAYS can say a lot for itself. Already the band has shared the stage with the likes of Kill Hannah, The 69 Eyes, Katatonia, Modern English, Wednesday 13, Violent Femmes, Guided By Voices, Program the Dead, and others. The band has been noted as number one in its region for its genre on MySpace.com and Garageband.com featured their single My Own Addiction as Track of the Day. Garageband.com also named 23RAINYDAYS winners of the several awards in the Alternative Rock category: Best Production, Best Melody, Most Rocking Track.

Widescale
The band is moving forward with determination. They are scheduled to tour through autumn and their new EP Broken Hearts Bleed Black is scheduled for release in September 2006. With a sound that is both classic and cutting edge, it's almost a given that widescale recognition awaits 23RAINYDAYS. Get ready for the downpour!
