Die Musik erzählt von der rauen Wirklichkeit. Gespielt von jungen Männern, denen das Leben viele Illusionen geraubt hat. Doch immer wieder wagen sie zu hoffen: Dann durchbrechen zuversichtliche Harmonien das verzweifelte Geballere, entsteht jene Ambivalenz, die so typisch für Cry Excess ist. Am 24. März 2017 erscheint das dritte Album, Vision, bei Bleeding Nose Records.

The band also scored a host of reputable supports which include Terror (USA), The Haunted (SWE), Sybreed (CH), Sepultura (USA) Psycroptic as well as being invited to perform at the coveted Bastardfest presented by the biggest Extreme Metal Agency in AUS, Soundworks Touring.
Dawn Heist finished the year with their debut video release of the single ʻNine Worldsʼ off the bandʼs debut E.P ʻTimewave Zeroʼ which gained an amazing 30,000 views within the first month on Youtube and continued to more than 100,000 within the first year. A great PR campaign through Soundworks PR (PR agency in Australia for Metal, Iced Earth, Nile, Trivium) saw the band land a song on cover mount of Terrorizer magazine.
With an impressive first year behind them, Dawn Heist shaped up for an enormous 2012 with appearances at Hammersonic Festival (30,000 people) with Suffocation, Nile, DRI and Cthonic in Jakarta, Indonesia and Rock of Celebes (15,000 people) with Suffocation, Secondhand Serenade and Psycroptic in Makassar, Indonesia on 28th and 29th April.

Early 2013 had seen Dawn Heist locked away writing and recording their debut album in which the band themselves took control of the studio producing and engineering the massive sounding offering titled ‘CATALYST’.
Dawn Heist then hit the Australian road playing a slew of national appearances to promote the release. October 2013 saw Dawn Heist embark on their first European tour in support of The Agonist (CAN), Threat Signal (CAN), and Mors Principium Est (FIN), also landing a spot on the coveted Euroblast 2013 line up in Germany with Meshuggah, Monuments, Textures and The Ocean, as well as appearing on the Waves of Metal Festival in The Netherlands.

2015 Has seen Dawn Heist writing and recording their follow up album to Catalyst which is titled YUGEN. This release shows a much more matured and precise song writing process and a natural progression of enormous melody and complex rhythms.
With an undeniable edge and vigorous live show, Dawn Heist have the world at their feet and are certainly an upcoming Australian export to watch closely.

Very sexy und very tough
Es ist eng. Es ist laut. Aggression liegt in der Luft. So wie sich das für Punkrock gehört, wenn er wild übersteuert aus den Boxen quillt. Genauso wie bei Electric Love, den vier Schwarzkutten aus Stuttgart. Zu hören sind sie ab 18. Dezember auf „Heroine“, ihrem ersten Album.
