Red Skies Dawning roar into view with “Obvious,” a standout alt-metal release from their upcoming debut EP From Ashes. The track hits with the force of a reckoning, capturing the moment you realize you’ve drifted too far from yourself and finally recognize the open door waiting to pull you back. Built on cinematic atmosphere, heavy riffs, and melodic tension, it channels the emotional weight and modern grit of Bad Omens, Dayseeker, and Sleep Token while carving out a sound distinctly their own.

Fronted by Chris Aleshire, the Maryland-based band is quickly becoming a force in the alternative metal space. Their approach blends aggression with vulnerability, turning personal upheaval into anthemic storytelling. That vision expands across From Ashes, their debut collection produced by Chris Dawson and mixed by Jimmie Beattie, where melodic ferocity and emotional catharsis collide through themes of pain, renewal, and rebirth.

Aleshire describes the project as a reconstruction of everything he had to break apart first, a testament to rising after collapse. “From Ashes is more than an album, it’s everything I’ve torn down and rebuilt, piece by piece,” he shares. That raw honesty drives the band’s sound just as strongly as the thunderous guitars and soaring hooks behind it.

With “Obvious” leading the charge, Red Skies Dawning step confidently into their new era, offering alt-metal that feels both deeply personal and undeniably powerful.
