HIATUS DAWN™ is
an
American Futuristic Rock Act that has risen from the depths
of the strangest of dreams and is now transplanting itself into yours.
Machine
and flesh unite to become one in jOHNNY DEM's Cinematic Dreamscape of sound...
jOHNNY DEM,
HIATUS DAWN's sole creator and mastermind, unleashes his musical vision onto the world. As a result, he created the stellar debut album EXOTICA in Aug. 97'.
Amazingly, it was recorded within 24 hrs. of studio running time,
at North 40 Studios, located in the basement of an Iowa farm house. Co-produced with accomplice Dave Russell, he single-handedly showed
what one man can achieve with a driven solid vision of musicality. As a result,
he released EXOTICA onto everyone at a large 1000 witness Halloween bash celebrating the CD
release.
HIATUS DAWN's incredible sound is described by many as that of a delicate combination
of both dream and nightmare, united in a twisted yet intriguing marriage of
sound. It is future-real. Drawing from influences and elements of bands ranging from The Sisters of
Mercy, Dream Theater, Metallica, NIN, Iron Maiden, The Cure and everything in between, he found the perfect original balance in
sound. This clever orchestration of electronica, synthesis, distorted guitars and
jaw crushing drum machines
represents
the psychOdelic calling card of the HIATUS DAWN sound. Sprinkled
in with its lead singer's
deep tenor style of vocals and apocalyptic stream-of-consciousness lyrics and song
writing, it captures the
imaginations of all who listen to its strange and twisting beauty...
...In time,
HIATUS DAWN's creator felt that it was done feeding off the drained regions of
its past. It would find
new ears to crawl into and grow. . . proven to be an excellent
breeding ground for this parasite to continue to manifest. Nothing could stop it. HIATUS DAWN would
continue to thrive; growing stronger, stranger, hungrier and more intense.
People begin to speak of it. This rock act is known to
single-handedly annihilate many that share the same stage...It continues pulling a new
cast of accomplices into the feed as well, with NEW music pouring forth. HIATUS DAWN would continue to unleash itself, like a ravenous plague of
locusts, onto it's listeners.
