"this promising debut is stuck in our CD player."-HUSTLER
"Scuttling out of the darkness comes The Study of Man... And the
Developed Shadow, the debut album from the Big Apple's Night Kills The Day. the lyrics reach depths more familiar to the industrial world than the goth. No romancing death here--NKD's dystopian visions dwell exclusively on an eternal internal battle, the struggle to make sense of life, and the war waged against our weak flesh to repress unwanted desires. Although religion is the set's thematic focal point, it easily crosses denominational divides, resonating even with atheists in its quest to understand the negative impulses that drive us all. A stunning debut and a thoroughly haunting and evocative album."-ALL MUSIC. COM, 4 1/2 stars.
"punk power chords, meaty hooks and lusty grooves"- METAL EDGE
Their music is ominous and layered, achieving a perfect balance of
depth and maintainability..." THE MAGAZINE (Toronto, Ont)
"...an act that should brighten up-or, maybe, darken the happy
misery-that old Cure fans have been missing for quite some time now."-DRUM!
"Influenced by The Cure and Joy Division musically, by Nietzsche and
Rimbaud ideologically, the goth-drenched new wave of Night Kills The Day looms over the next generation of alt-rockers like a nihilistic shadow of self-incarceration. Forged from the life-long friendship of
vocalist Luke Brian and bassist Timothy Falzone, Night Kills The Day create new wave that bridges the gap between the darkness of the 80's and the anthem-like hooks of arena rock. While guitars may either chime soothingly like canaries or crash in a tidal wave of distorted mayhem, the band never lets the hooks and the lyrics go to waste, making a breaking sentiment with every word on their full-length The Study Of Man...And The Developed Shadow.- AQUARIAN WEEKLY
"The Study of Man... is filled with airy melodic synths, dance club
rhythms and gentle flowing atmospheres in the guitar motions and vocals. The result gives Night Kills the Day the musical significance of
Radiohead in the shoegaze arena with vast consonance in instrumentation and fluent vocals that carry a warm sonic frequency through the chord shifts and vaporous ranges.-GARAGE RADIO
"Coming from NYC, these guys might just top The Strokes and The Bravery as the best rock band out of the Big Apple. Expect to hear more about this band."- SOCIETY'S ELITE
"The members of Night Kills the Day could write a survival guide to
trauma and tragedy. They don't need to, though, since they've channeled their collective experiences into a cathartic debut record, The Study of a Man ... and the Developed Shadow. The 11 tracks on the release spin tales of drug and booze use, death and sex, and excesses of all kinds. Most of the songs are driven home with scathing guitar riffs and crashing drums that echo everything from the Cure and Smashing Pumpkins to Syd
Barrett and Depeche Mode."- BERGEN RECORD
"...Depeche-Mode-meets-The-Deftones atmospheric rock."- AM NEW YORK
"Despite the obvious connections to The Cure or Bauhaus, Night Kills
the Day stands apart. The four-piece have crafted a mature and layered experience that has a certain New York feel. The Study of Man... will haunt you even after you hit stop and move onto something else. It's catchy, moody, melodic and overall engaging. Night Kills the Day is not a band that you will soon forget.-BLOGCRITICS.ORG
