Days of the New became an overnight rock sensation back in the late 90s. Their 1997 debut spawned the massive radio hit "Touch, Peel and Stand." This is the song that put the band on the map. It was inescapable at the time and still is today (if you listen to the radio anymore, that is). The principal force behind Days of the New was Travis Meeks, a gifted songwriter and musician that hit it big at just 18 years old. He went from recording on a 4-track in his bedroom to opening for Metallica in a very short period of time. The world was truly in his hands. With a talented band behind him, Travis had endless potential. But his story quickly took an unfortunate turn.
Severe drug addiction got ahold of Travis in the early 2000s and never let go. It all started with getting prescribed painkillers for a kidney stone. From there, things got dark fast. It got so bad Travis was even featured on the A&E series Intervention in 2005. Understandably, his music career stalled out as a result. Days of the New had the potential to take over the rock world for years to come. Travis alone had enough talent and drive to do anything he desired. Instead, he spent years in hiding abusing drugs throughout the 2000s, which he was never able to fully bounce back from. Days of the New's original line-up did briefly reunite in 2014, but again, Travis's addiction led to issues. Following this failed reunion tour, he was in and out of jail for 6 years.
Today, Travis Meeks appears to be sober and in good spirits. Regardless, his band Days of the New is now a relic of a time long gone, unfortunately forgotten by the general public. This is the rise and fall of one of the best bands of the 90s that fell apart for a really sad reason.
