Reasons to Leave cover art
After a five year long wait, A Vacant Affair (AVA) has finally released their debut full length effort Reasons to Leave .
In early 2007, A Vacant Affair began writing new material for their debut full length, which was recorded by up and coming producer Cedric Chew (Inversion Productions). This record captures the band’s natural progression as it moves beyond the sum of its influences, into a musical territory they can uniquely call their own.
Set against a dynamic palette of epic, angular instrumentation in the vein of bands such as Glassjaw, Underoath and The Used, Reasons to Leave does not promise to be an easy listen, but is definitely a record that most can relate to. From the anthemic romp of first single 'We Are Not The Same', the scathing riffage of 'The Dawning' to the emotional introspection of 'Mirrors', it is clearly evident that A Vacant Affair has grown into a stalwart heavy rock outfit, surpassing their over-stylized peers.
