The Survival Code - MMXV

The Survival Code are a four-piece alt-rock band based in London, they combine passion, quality musicianship and rawness with dynamic focus.Their heavy drops and melodious breaks compound a thorn bush of honest distorted riffs and skilled songwriting, giving impetus to catchy 'pop' chords. Plunging guitars play against shadowy lyrics which are at times in stark contrast to their upbeat rhythms.The Survival Code built up a vibrant hardcore fanbase over several years of putting in the hard gigging yards all around London and the South east, before taking off two years to write and record this debut album.Produced by John Merriman of Crown Lane studios, renowned for his orchestral arrangements and the harnessing of 'big sounds, the album was mastered by Matt Hyde (Slipknot, Gallows, Ash, Machine Head, Funeral for a Friend), striking a perfect balance of serenity and aggression, and presenting the band as an exciting new prospect, leading to extensive coverage and spot plays 6Music and XFM.Alt Rock at its' purest - 'Never let Go' is a fantastic official first single from The Survival Code, nothing really more to add, it's fantastic, enjoy! - Subba Culture.One of the better examples of a UK based outfit embracing the classic US alt-rock sound - Indie London
