A Stranger Saved My Life<\/em> nostalgically captures frontman Kyle Nicolaides as a young boy sporting a superman costume back in grade school. As lyrics question what to say, what to do, and how to handle a difficult crossroad in life, the home-like video reminds us that we can be our own superhero when faced with life’s “kryptonite”. Beware of Darkness puts away the Howlin’ Wolf-like blues guitar riffs for a moment to pair a beautifully simplistic melody with a clear focus on how we are the ones in charge of our own destiny.<\/p>\n

“There are events and moments in your life that will be tragic, but so unbelievably freeing, and sweet at the same time.\u00a0And it’s strange and uncomfortable, but it just comes as part of being a human.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Beware of Darkness\u00a0made their debut in 2012 when they were asked to open for\u00a0Tegan and Sara, Stone Temple Pilots, Bush, and Deftones. In May 2013,\u00a0<\/strong>Beware of Darkness\u00a0released their first full-length album ‘Orthodox’<\/em>. Comprised of bassist Daniel Curcio, drummer Tony Cupito, and front man Kyle Nicolaide’s, the band has toured the UK and played across the USA and Europe as main support for\u00a0Smashing Pumpkins\u00a0as well as\u00a0Jane\u2019s Addiction\u00a0at Uproar Festival.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
