Digital download of the album "Empty Days & Sleepless Nights" by DEFEATER. Features the 10 song "Empty Days" album and bonus acoustic 4 song "Sleepless Nights" EP.

Empty Days & Sleepless Nights is the second studio album by the American melodic hardcore band Defeater. The album was released on March 8, 2011 through Bridge Nine Records. It was recorded at guitarist Jay Maas' Getaway Recording Studios in Wakefield, Massachusetts. Though bassist Mike Poulin was a member of the band at the time, bass on the record was contributed by former guitarist Gus Pesce and Jay Maas.

But now with a new Defeater album firmly in our grasps, how does Empty Days and Sleepless Nights fare when put up against their near flawless back catalog" Empty Days and Sleepless Nights is at its heart very much in tune with the catharsis that brought us Travels, taking the raw energy and honest emotion of bands like Modern Life Is War, t. The only real surprise on Empty Days and Sleepless Nights is Defeater's choice to expand on the moment of acoustic brilliance that was the latter half of Prophet in Plain Clothes from Travels into four tracks of jangly, low key folk songs. Unfortunately these songs come off as more as an afterthought when compared to the first disc of the release.

White Oak Doors is the last song on the Empty Days part of Defeater’s sophomore album Empty Days & Sleepless Nights. White Oak Doors starts with the older brother hearing a knock at the door. After grabbing his gun, he soon realizes that it’s his younger brother who ran away after brutally murdering their father. The older brother points the gun at the younger’s head and makes him walk to the train tracks (from Everything Went Quiet ). At the train tracks, the younger brother’s strength allows him to take control and he pins the older to the tracks

Empty Days & Sleepless Nights is a fourteen-song double LP (single CD) and the first four tracks showcase a new, acoustic side of the band that sounds a lot like Rocky Votolato and Ryan Adams. However, they return to their hardcore roots and deliver ten huge-sounding, heavy and catchy tracks to round out the album. Empty Days & Sleepless Nights is an absolute masterpiece. Sample this album Artist (Sample). After seeing Defeater love this weekend I immediately bought this album along with Letters Home, their newest record. This band deserves every cent they can get because they work hard and know how to tell a great story.
