Top 10 Best Dead by April Songs
Mixing metalcore with electronic and pop elements, Dead by April has developed a reputation for blending intense riffs, melodic hooks, and raw, emotional lyrics in a way that few other bands do. Since forming in 2007, they've put out a wide range of tracks that hit you right in the feels, whether they're tackling love, loss, inner struggles, or hope.

Losing You
Wow... This song is just so amazing. The screaming is awesome, the melodic vocals are great, and the drumming and guitars are too. I have listened to this song a thousand times, and it still gives me chills. I just want to say that Dead by April is my life. Without Dead by April, my life is incomplete. Thanks, Dead by April, for making such great songs.
An ace band, but this is next-level stuff, pure quality. The screaming is ace in this track and adds a great dimension to the song. A band heading for big success, surely?
It's the heaviest, and that's why it's the best in my opinion. If the lead singer would stop bringing the boy band vibe while Jimmy is rocking the crap out of it, they would be SO RAW.

Promise Me
Such an amazing song with beautiful melodies and emotional lyrics! Every time the intro starts with the melody, I get goosebumps and almost want to cry. I should tell you, this song will touch your feelings. The clean singing is just unbelievable - man, he can sing! And when the last part comes where he screams, "Can you promise me?!" I unexpectedly have tears in my eyes. Just an awesome song.
I am someone who likes softer music, but even though this song is metal, it still gives you the same or even more emotions. Probably the best song! Great, awesome... keep it up, Dead by April!
This, along with What Can I Say, are their best songs. Yes, they may be softer than the likes of Losing You, Erased, Trapped, etc., but lyrically they are very good.

What Can I Say
Dead by April had tremendous amounts of skill. I cannot begin to explain the envy I have of Jimmie Strimell's vocals in all of his music! This was the first song I had ever heard by Dead by April, and after three years, I still adore it! This band has my total respect and support! Rock on, boys!
This is the exact story of my life. No one accepts me for who I am. I love how this song tells that story through the lyrics. No matter what someone does, they always want more. People are never satisfied.
This is the song that I relate to the most. I wish I could make somebody listen to its lyrics. But ironically, all my friends are so hooked on Taylor Swift. Gosh! Why do girls have to be so girly?

Trapped
This song is just... EPIC! First of all, the keyboards at the beginning are super catchy and powerful. They give me goosebumps every time I listen to them. The clean vocals are indescribably awesome and melodic, and I appreciate that there was no Auto-Tune used. The guitars are surprisingly heavy, and along with the hard-hitting drums and bass work, it's just awesome.
Lyrically, this song is a masterpiece. It reminds me of my dreams and encourages you to keep chasing your dreams no matter what others say! Dead by April is AWESOME! M/
This song is one of the best I've ever heard in my life. The lyrics are definitely awesome: "All of my dreams are all I see. Try not to wake me, can't you see..." Just chill-giving.
The vocals are so amazing, some of the most perfect clean vocals. The synths are so melodic it makes me want to jump high in the sky. Guitar, drums, and bass are played so well. This makes the track completely perfect. The best song ever. Go DbA!
-
Erased
This song is so awesome. I love this band so much. I love this beat. It's really hot. The lyrics are so sick. I wish there were more bands out there like this one.
-
Leaves Falling
This song has a very nice, catchy, and melodic sound, especially in the chorus. It starts off great with the piano and first verse, then builds up at the bridge before fading down with the piano in the background. It's too bad it's an unreleased and underrated song.
The intro and clean vocals are more than perfect!

Calling
This is what I call a life-changing song. It will truly make you a different person. Truly an epic song by my favorite band, Dead by April. This song shows such great emotion that it almost makes me cry. The screaming is awesome, the clean singing is great, the guitars just rock, and the synths are so melodic... I can't stop giving them compliments. I describe them with only one word: EPIC. Try this song, PLEASE, and I know you'll get addicted to it.
When I heard this song for the first time, it felt like I was listening to the best song ever recorded. Even if I listen to this song a million times, I'm still going to like it. Probably one of the best songs by Dead by April. This song has one of the best screams ever, and the clean vocals are awesome. The lyrics are awesome too. Dead by April is the best.

As a Butterfly
Zandro's vocals were awesome on this track. It's sad he left. I always find myself playing this song before I start playing any other song. It's a perfect blend of pop and metal - metalheads might hate this, but if you're coming from a pop background, it's a perfect song to lure you into loving metal.
Needs to be top 5! Great song with amazing lyrics! It's a great track from their new album, "Let the World Know."
Needs to be top 3... Awesome song... I just love it.

Sorry for Everything
Best song ever! Greece loves DBA! Please give us more songs like Sorry for Everything, My Saviour, and Calling without screaming, if possible.
Woah, only 8th?! This was one of my first Dead by April songs, and although I have found many of their songs pleasing to the ears, this will always be one of my favorites!
Vote it up!

How is this not #1? This is their best song lyrically and instrumentally.
Awesome, man! It fills my life! I can realize everything in my life!

Stronger
It's because of this song that I really owe the guys from Dead by April some part of my life. It simply runs through the veins like it's "burning everything inside." It's not just a song, guys. It could become a part of your life forever. This song deserves no other place but "Number 1."
Awesome song. Love the lyrics and rapping. The singing's great as always. Dead by April knows how to rock the place!
Passion runs through my veins whenever I listen to this song. It certainly makes me feel STRONGER.

Dreaming
This song truly changed me. When I heard it for the first time, I was confused. The synths were the best I had ever heard, and they were so cool. And then, suddenly, the heavy bass and the drumming hit. The intro of the song just blew me away. But one thing still stood out - the singing. The singing was indescribably amazing, so melodic, better than any singing I'd ever heard before. Zandro Santiago is just awesome. The screaming by Jimmie Strimell was totally out of this world - so rough, heavy, and harsh, it blended perfectly with the clean vocals.
Lyrically, this song is pure genius: "How strange it feels, moving in slow motion..." The greatest chorus I've heard in my life. Everything about this song is just perfect! Dead by April is simply THE BEST! M/

Let the World Know
This song is a different experience of true melody and a perfect song of the album because it is the title song itself. Bravo.
This is one of the most balanced melodic metalcore songs ever produced!
-
Falling Behind
Why this is at number 27, I don't know... It's not only DBA's best song. It's one of the best songs ever. Best lyrics, best clean and harsh vocal combination.
-
Found Myself In You
This song is so addictive. You guys should listen to it. It should be within the first 5. The lyrics are great, and the whole song is very inspirational. You guys should definitely give it a try.
Awesome song with awesome lyrics! Just love it.

Empathy
"Look into my eyes, what did you see? I'm someone who can show empathy. When your mind's clouded by your heart, it's not easy to see what's real and what's not. I gave you my empathy." Just a chill-giving song, it truly rocks! Probably one of their best songs. Every time I listen to Andersson's screams, it makes me scream along, and every time I listen to Santiago's voice, it's just all too good. Man, this band is the God of Music.
Yes! Yes! Yes! This song rocks! Just the best! The lyrics, the drumming, the screaming, the singing, guitars, bass, and synths all get a ten out of ten. Thanks to the best band ever, I love Dead by April! Big part of my life for sure.

Carry Me
Best DBA song ever. Great vocals, lyrics, and melody: I am still alone, turning into stone. Where did you go? What did you find? Where did everything come to an end?... So many steps, I have been crawling. Carry me, embrace me.
Surprised that this song is not mentioned! Absolutely beautiful vocals, lyrics, and melody! Best DBA song ever.

This is a great song, especially the music and voice. I like it. This song is awesome, and when I hear it every day, I feel like my soul is singing.
