Smile Empty Soul gave us their song "Don't Ever leave" for the GRD Bootleg CD in 2009  and then shortly afterward disappeared.  So it was great to hear from the band once again when this video dropped into my e-mail box this morning.   The video is of their new song "Afterlife" & it rocks - watch here and you'll witness first-hand the band is back and in a big way.

Guitarist/Vocalist Sean Danielson recently told Noisecreep "We've definitely grown on this album. It's its own record when you sit it next to the other ones we've made so far. This one is heavier and much more riff-oriented than anything we've done in the past. It's more progressive, but it still has the melodic base that we've always done,"

Watch the vid now and then please vote on whether or not you think it Rocks too!
