It says a lot for a band to branch out and try a different market, but for BYSTANDER, they are coming all the way to Texas for their first show back since the lock down in Oregon.
Show Notes
BYSTANDER is an up and coming American heavy metal outfit based out of Portland, Oregon. Blending more technical styles of death metal riffs with groove inspired deathcore breakdowns, BYSTANDER brings forth a crushing sound reminiscent of the golden era of heavy metalcore & “djent,” appealing to fans of Whitechapel, Meshuggah, Thy Art Is Murder, Volumes, Born Of Osiris, After the Burial & more.
Bystander came out to Texas in mid March to get a feel for the Texas music scene to see if this was the place to be when they got back to playing gigs. Taylor gives his run down of their time here. They visited Rainy St, checked out some comedy clubs and of course, had to get some Texas BBQ.
The guys take a dive into the lyrics from the latest Ep "Product of Misinformation" that dropped earlier this year and touched a little on how the band faired during their COIVD lockdown. Now that shows are returning to a stage near you, they are excited to get back out and mix it up with what is hopefully a new fan base here in Austin, Texas.
Todays featured song is "Isolation Campaign" of their latest album "Product of Misinformation" Link below to their Spotify
