History

Days of the New formed in 1995 in Charlestown, Indiana, later based in Louisville, Kentucky, built around singer-guitarist Travis Meeks. The band started as an experimental rock/groove metal trio called Dead Reckoning before Meeks shifted to an acoustic-driven sound, added guitarist Todd Whitener, and renamed the project. Producer Scott Litt (R.E.M., Nirvana) signed them to Outpost Recordings/Geffen. Their 1997 self-titled debut, nicknamed the "Orange" or "Yellow" album, sold about 1.5 million copies and produced the hits "Touch, Peel and Stand," "The Down Town," and "Shelf in the Room"; "Touch, Peel and Stand" topped Billboard's Mainstream Rock chart for 17 weeks and was later named the format's greatest song of all time by Billboard. The original lineup - Meeks, Jesse Vest, Whitener, and Matt Taul - splintered acrimoniously in 1998, with Vest, Whitener, and Taul going on to form Tantric. A 1999 self-titled follow-up (the "Green" album) briefly featured future Pussycat Dolls frontwoman Nicole Scherzinger, and a third self-titled record (the "Red" album) followed in 2001, each with a shifting lineup around Meeks.
