The First thing that comes to my mind when I’m listening to  Blind Witness’s “Nightmare on providence street” is Balance.
The perfect balance between great musicianship and catchy metal, between heavy breakdowns and epic solos. Between fast and slow.

Words cannot describe how much the band has grown since the 2007 release of “silences are words”. With several member changes, a new label and countless international tours under their belts, these guys have gone from small town metalcore act to full time touring international metal party machines.

With songs like the ever so catchy “Baby, One More Notch” the guys show the world that metal doesn’t have to be chaotic and instead decided to write the party anthem for all the misfits who don’t feel like rocking LMFOA’s “SHOTS” when getting ready for a night on the town. Songs like “For life” featuring Johnny from grammy nominated Spineshank and All Alone show that the band  have grown depper and darker in the last two years and that they should no longer be called a metalcore band and puts them right up there with other acts such as Suicide Silence and label mates As Blood Runs Black.

The most memorable track on the album for me would be the very lenghty (6:04min) “This New Year” which really showcases every side of this band and ending with a very powerful, almost choir like chant.

This may be Blind Witness’ Sophomore album but it is only the beginning of their careers. They will be out promoting the effort all over Canada and the United States for the next couple of months with bands such as Dead&Divine, The Bled and For The Fallen Dreams. for more information check their myspace at http://www.myspace.com/blindwitness
