Biography

Taking influence from bands like Converge, Between the Buried and Me, and Darkest Hour, Nights Like These sprung out of Memphis, TN, with their own unforgiving blend of heavy metal and hardcore. Comprised of vocalist Billy Bottom, guitarists Matt Qualls and Derren Saucier, bassist Sebastian Rios, and drummer Patrick Leatherwood, the band built themselves a strong local following -- regularly playing to packed crowds -- with only a three-song demo to their name. Sharing stages along the way with bands like the Red Chord, Skinless, and Poison the Well, Nights Like These soon caught the attention of Chicago's Victory Records. They joined the label's roster in February 2006 and entered the studio with Andreas Magnusson (the Black Dahlia Murder, Reflux) to craft their full-length debut. The Faithless, an aptly named album that expressed the bleak life outlook exhibited in the band's lyrics, arrived in June 2006. Summer and early fall was subsequently spent supporting the record on an extensive nationwide tour. ~ Corey Apar, All Music Guide

Biography

In 2006, Nights Like These released their debut, The Faithless, to overall positive reviews[1] on Victory Records. They released their most recent album Sunlight at Secondhand on October 16, 2007, again on Victory Records. In 2008 the band went on hiatus for the first part of the year. It was later announced (via the bands myspace) that drummer Patrick Leatherwood had left the band due to other commitments. The band announced that they were planning to scale back on touring and albums, as opposed to taking on a full time touring schedule with yearly albums. The Victory Records website has taken off Nights Like These from their "Artist" page, this has since started a fire storm of rumors that the band and Victory have separated. On July 15th 2008, Nights Like These posted a Myspace blog confirming their split with Victory and their new drummer Todd Pasterniak.
