Dayseeker @ Mission Ballroom

The energy at Mission Ballroom was electric on October 22, 2024 in Denver, CO. The lineup was stacked, including Dayseeker, Alpha Wolf, Catch Your Breath & Kingdom of Giants.

Kingdom of Giants

Kingdom of Giants is an American melodic metalcore sextet known for its uncompromising intensity and technical prowess. Based in Northern California, the band attracted the attention of the metal underground with its hard-hitting debut album, Every Wave of Sound, and found mainstream success after signing with InVogue for 2014’s punishing Ground Culture. KOG made a lateral move to Sharptone ahead of the arrival of 2020’s equally punitive Passenger and 2024’s Bleeding Star EP.

Catch Your Breath

Catch Your Breath is a fresh, burgeoning Hard Rock band based out of Austin, Texas. Comprised of vocalist Josh, guitarist Teddy, bassist Cianan, and drummer Onell, Catch Your Breath injects a unique mix of synth soundscaping elements, imaginative production, and refined songwriting for an intense amount of emotion. The secret ingredient of their music is their relatable core. Says Teddy of the sound, “We want to mix it up with a new gen of rock… there’s almost never just our instruments playing by themselves”.

With their hit single “Dial Tone” debuting on Sirius XM Octane radio, hitting #3 on Spotify Metal’s worldwide chart, and #7 on Billboard’s Hot Hard Rock Songs, this track gave the band the surge they’ve deserved from the start. Whether it’s a design at Hot Topic, coverage on Knotfest.com, or on tour with Falling in Reverse, fans can instantly connect with Catch Your Breath more than ever before.

Alpha Wolf

Taking their moniker from the canine-battling Liam Neesonsurvival thriller The Grey, Australia’s Alpha Wolf deliver toothsome metalcore seasoned with deep nu-metal grooves. Originating in Burnie, Tasmania, the band relocated to Melbourne before releasing their debut album, 2017’s Mono. Rooted in themes of trauma and depression, the LP found favor with hardcore enthusiasts worldwide, including SharpTone Records, which delivered the group’s 2018 EP Fault. Alpha Wolf’s sophomore long-player, A Quiet Place to Die, appeared in 2020 and debuted at number six on the ARIA Albums Chart, eliciting praise from critics and fans alike. A pair of EPs, The Lost & The Longing and Shh, appeared in 2022 and 2023, respectively. The full-length Half Living Things arrived the following year and featured the single “Sucks 2 Suck” with rap legend Ice-T.
