Music is meant to envoke emotions, thoughts and sometimes actions. This is where ForDaylight begins, Formed by Ernie and Eric of now disbanded Unfisted, Brothers have leaped forward by taking a step back. Staying true to thier beliefs that music should strike a chord in your soul. ForDaylight was born. we have written and played music to heal ourselvesand in turn we hope to help heal others of all the negative in music out there today.

For Daylight has managed to mold anthems of integrity, passion, loss and ultimately gain into a unique sound of posthardcore/ hardcore music. nothing is sacrificed with this fierce attack of aggression and equally matched sincerity.
