Alternative Rock from Dying Habit

Coming out of Anglesey with pure intensity, the thunderous alternative rock of Dying Habit has seen the band become a leading act in the North Wales music scene. Fronted by the fervent voice of Nathan Jones, the four-piece outfit blend sharp-edged emotion with anthemic scale, underpinned by the heavy rhythmic backing of Mark Jones on drums and Daniel Garner on bass and Alan Hart’s guitar work.

Formed with purpose and a shared passion for alternative rock that strikes both head and heart, Dying Habit have been building a catalogue of truly compelling music. Since their debut single “Unrealities” in 2018, the band has been making an impact with a sound that embraces melody and momentum in equal measure. Their 2020 debut full-length record Until the Air Runs Out offered an early window into their creative scope via an album shaped in the shadow of the pandemic, but defiant in its drive to connect.

Two years later, they returned with “Directions,” a single recorded with renowned producer Al Groves which marked a new phase for the band where their songwriting could hold grit and grace side by side. That context reached full bloom in The Chaos of Silence, their 2024 album produced by Russ Hayes, a thirty-five-minute ride through textured soundscapes and profound lyricism.

Now, Dying Habit sharpen their focus again with their latest release titled “Three Letter View,” the first single lifted from their upcoming album THERE IS NO SKY, set to drop later this year. The new track perfectly distills the band’s ability to mix expansive, existential themes with the rousing rock energy of riff-driven arrangement and commanding vocal performance. Thematically, it’s a meditation on the human body, mind and the strange vibrational pathways that guide us; emotionally, physically and spiritually across unseen timelines and inner dimensions.

Brought in by the flutter of tumbling guitar notes, the track jumps into a gritty riff-focused groove propelled by rolling drums and led by Nathan’s expressive vocal leads. With dashes of bluesy licks, pulsing bass lines and lively drums all wrapped up in a swaggering alternative rock fabric, the band serves up an exhilarating slice of their catchy songwriting brought to life by their incredible performance panache.

With moments of hazy atmosphere and twanging lead guitar, carried by the ever-present patter of punching drums, “Three Letter View” delivers a truly anthemic sound that’s instantly memorable and impactful throughout. With THERE IS NO SKY on the horizon, Dying Habit look set to continue their steady rise as a modern rock band with an original and thoroughly engaging musical vision.
