The foundation of A Day To Remember was built on a drive to reinvent a genre that was desperately seeking creativity. The music and lyrics performed by vocalist Jeremy McKinnion, guitarists Neil Westfall and Kevin Skaff, bassist Joshua Woodard and drummer Alex Shelnutt are based off true, deep-seeded emotion. ADTR masks over the genres, with a wingspan stretching from the pop-punk genre to metal core, without settling on one single interpretation. Instead of shooting for one, shoot for it all. By doing it all, Rock Sound praised that “ADTR are the poster boys of a genre on the cusp of a new revolution.”
