Few bands these days can adequately encapsulate their surroundings into their sound. But Ohio’s Mayfly manages to successfully navigate these waters. Leaping forth from the very depths of the Midwest, this dynamic group of musicians wages war on the listener with a fast-past and eclectic blend of melodic hard rock and hard-hitting metalcore. Mayfly draws from a variety of influences — from Deftones to Underoath, and As Cities Burn to Dead Poetic—to create a fresh, forward and engaging breed of Hard rock/metal the likes of which the listener has likely never heard. The band pays homage to the past while maintaining a fresh, forward-thinking approach to songwriting.
