This week we are joined by Dani Doom, vocalist of the infamous experimental deathcore/metalcore band Design The Skyline. In traditional Brutality Podcast fashion, we go through Dani's musical journey & all of the Extra Large Kids/Design The Skyline lore, including the Surrounded By Silence music video, signing with Victory Records & the hate that came with it all. We chat about the bands musical direction over the years, the comeback single "Beckoning" as well as the future of the band.DANI DOOM: https://www.instagram.com/danid00m/DESIGN THE SKYLINE: https://www.instagram.com/DesignTheSkylineOfficialMOVE LIKE GHOSTS: https://www.instagram.com/MoveLikeGhostsThank you to IndieMerchstore for sponsoring the show: https://www.indiemerchstore.comUse code BRUTALITY for 10% offBRUTALITY PODCAST MERCH: https://www.indiemerchstore.com/collections/brutality-podcastTo support the podcast and gain access to behind the scenes, early access, bonus streams & more: https://www.patreon.com/brutalitypodcastAll BRUTALITY PODCAST links(Discord, Youtube, etc): https://linktr.ee/brutalitypodcastCHAPTERS:[00:00:00] Teaser / Intro [00:01:34] Bonjour [00:02:40] Getting into music [00:05:08] 2006 BMTH and early deathcore [00:10:51] Dani Dior was big on Myspace [00:20:17] Extra Large Kids [00:23:44] Surrounded By Silence music video [00:26:10] Impact of the online hate [00:28:46] Dr Acula shenanigans [00:33:13] The scene look [00:37:30] The timing of Surrounded By Silence [00:38:19] Design The Skyline vocals [00:40:07] Direction of the new material [00:43:24] Shadowdropping the new single [00:45:43] Members' projects outside of DTS [00:46:37] Drop C [00:47:26] Navaeh writing/recording [00:52:16] Experience with Victory Records [01:00:34] Sound The Alarms [01:02:34] People writing off Navaeh [01:04:48] Deathgaze [01:05:46] Clean singing & autotune [01:11:26] Future Design The Skyline material [01:12:24] Coming back to the Myspace Revival era [01:16:40] Beckoning music video [01:23:29] Tour story 1 [01:25:35] Tour story 2 [01:27:49] Myspace era bands [01:29:43] Corpus Christi scene [01:31:40] The future of Design The Skyline [01:33:33] Stage presence [01:34:30] Dream tour [01:36:21] Clothing brand
