They Buried the Old Version of Themselves, And Filmed the Funeral
Alt-rock force Daysick return with the official music video for “Good Riddance,” marking the one-year anniversary of a track that has become a defining moment in their conceptual narrative. Hailing from Nova Scotia, Canada, the band continues carving out their identity in the modern rock landscape with a sound that balances theatrical tension, sharp-edged urgency, and emotionally charged storytelling.
For fans of My Chemical Romance, Billy Talent, and Sum 41, “Good Riddance” hits with punchy riffs, dynamic vocal shifts, and a chorus that feels both defiant and cathartic. But beyond the hooks lies something deeper, a confrontation with identity, regret, and the cost of self-betrayal.
Lyrically, “Good Riddance” dives into the psychological war between who we are and who we pretend to be. Lines like “You caused your own pain by changing the face behind your name” expose the internal damage that comes from suppressing authenticity. The track wrestles with fear, self-loathing, and the quiet erosion of identity, before landing on a powerful moment of release.
The repeated refrain, “Good riddance to you,” isn’t aimed at another person. It’s directed inward. It’s the burial of insecurity. The exorcism of self-hate. The rejection of a synthetic version of the self built from fear.
Visually, the music video reinforces this transformation. Dark symbolism, emotional performance shots, and conceptual storytelling reflect the larger narrative arc Daysick have been building. It feels less like a standalone single and more like a pivotal chapter in an unfolding story, one that signals growth, awareness, and evolution.
“Good Riddance” stands as a declaration: confronting your inner demons is brutal, but liberation is louder.
Daysick aren’t just writing songs, they’re documenting psychological rebirth in real time.

Biography
DaySick is a four-piece conceptual rock band from Nova Scotia, Canada, featuring Logan Steeves (lead vocals, guitar, production), Alex Hamilton (guitar, backing vocals, production), Mikey Smith (drums), and Mike Sampson (bass, backing vocals).
Blending pop-punk, post-hardcore, emo, and alternative rock, DaySick delivers emotionally volatile music that hits hard and cuts deep. Their sound is fast, cinematic, and story-driven, fueled by early 2000s punk energy but sharpened with modern intensity, darker themes, and ambitious sonic shifts.
Their debut concept album, recorded, mixed, and mastered by Alex Hamilton, follows a man suspended between life and death, forced to confront regret, fractured identity, and the cost of living for approval instead of truth. Each track unfolds like a chapter in his collapse, spiraling through self-destruction, moments of clarity, and the possibility of rebirth.
Now, DaySick is crafting their next release: a full-scale alternative rock opera centered on a man trapped inside a psychiatric ward, desperately trying to convince everyone, and himself, that he isn’t insane. As the story unravels, reality distorts, delusion takes hold, and nothing is quite what it seems.
But DaySick isn’t just a band.
It’s a condition.

Logan Steeves - Vocals & Guitar
