to turn lead into gold.

8th Day is a web-based music project. There will be no live sets conducted by this band.

There are a wide variety of avenues present in ciberspace for a band to lend their voice and creations to an audience. If music is a common language that expresses the rise and fall of humankind, we would like to be the soundtrack for change.

This is something we never really considered when we began the band. We sought to create what we felt was a unique and masterful grip on the vision that we as people hope to see as we go through the necessary transitions into a more peaceful planet.

Max Azpiazu & Scott L. Burton began playing/recording music in '97, alongside two others, under the monicker 'Scalp-Lock'. Differences in the band caused things to fall apart between members, so each person went their seperate ways.
In 2006, Max and Scott began talking about what they envisioned musically, while tossing around ideas and band names. The initial ideas thrown around were with a heavier, more guitar driven edge. But with the first two tracks, 'Of Semblance, of Suffering' & 'The Hunt...' being recorded, they realized the tone of their future musical prose and excursions as a more ambient/industrial darkside edge that seemed to work, as labels, perfectly with what they were recording.

Lull, Ministry, Radiohead, & Peter Gabriel were some of the major influences for the band.
