About Dynamite Daniel

The Dynamite Daniel Project was started in 2003 under the leadership and guidance of singer, songwriter, and guitarist Daniel Isaac Roberts and has thrived ever since. His first album, "DYNAMITE," which was released in the summer of 2004, received 4 stars on CD (expired link) for its unique style of aggressive play. The second album, "LEFT ON THE OUTSIDE," which was released in the fall of 2006, was a huge maturity from the first record and had received much radio airplay from Internet music promoting websites such as (expired link) and (expired link).

He also recorded two Christmas albums during the fall of 2007 and the fall of 2008 with his former band mates from his first band, Rated X. Both Christmas records were entitled "A DYNAMITE CHRISTMAS." The Christmas CD box set features both live audio and studio audio recordings of famous Christmas songs that they covered in their own rendition.

During the spring and summer of 2010, Dynamite Daniel re-recorded and remastered the "LEFT ON THE OUTSIDE (LP)." The newly revised "LEFT ON THE OUTSIDE (LP)," was a landmark success for Dynamite Daniel, taking the project to new heights of hard rock musical mastery. Dynamite Daniel was given much respect by fans all over the world after its release.

Shortly after the remake of the "LEFT ON THE OUTSIDE (LP)," Dynamite Daniel released a two song demo/ep entitled "JUDGMENT DAY." The demo/ep features a rock instrumental and a vocal recording of his song "JUDGMENT DAY." Both tracks were big hits off of (expired link) and (expired link).

In the fall of 2011, Dynamite Daniel unleashed the most aggressive, heaviest, and most melodic album in his entire music career. That album is "WAGING WAR." "WAGING WAR" topples over every previous recording that Dynamite Daniel ever did during the course of 8 years. The album focuses on wars and rumors of wars, end times prophecy, and the second coming of Jesus Christ.

In the spring of 2013, Dynamite Daniel released his greatest hits record, entitled "THE BEST OF DYNAMITE DANIEL." This greatest hits album features all of Dynamite Daniel’s most popular songs during the project’s 10 year longevity. It also features 4 revised versions of “Day of Revolution,” “Thrash ‘n’ Burn,” “When the Crowd Goes Wild,” and “Livin’ in Your Own Hell" which were off of his 2004 "DYNAMITE" album.

In the summer of 2014, Dynamite Daniel released his quintessential follow-up album, "MONEY DOESN'T MAKE THE MAN." “MONEY DOESN'T MAKE THE MAN” is another great Christian metal manifesto. God's word is spoken again in song as Dynamite Daniel unleashes six powerful tracks that focus on the love of money being the root of all evil. Choose to serve God or mammon!

In the winter of 2015, Dynamite Daniel released his new single "ENDANGERED SPECIES." The song was initially recorded back in 2011. After gaining some respect and praise for the song from a few friends on Facebook, Dynamite Daniel decided to finally sell the track through online music stores. It would later appear as the 10th track off of Dynamite Daniel's 2015 album "SOCIAL DISORDER."

In the summer of 2015, Dynamite Daniel released his most riveting and thought-provoking album "SOCIAL DISORDER." Although "SOCIAL DISORDER" didn't focus so much on topics relating to the Christian/spiritual walk as did "WAGING WAR" and "MONEY DOESN'T MAKE THE MAN," the album's righteous indignation towards stereotypes and racism took the words right out of the book of I John 4:20. "SOCIAL DISORDER" contains 11 tracks full of wonderful melodies and catchy anthems mixed with very strong messages. This album is not just a great album by Dynamite Daniel but a timely treasure by Dynamite Daniel.

In the summer of 2018, Dynamite Daniel released his very first double album "LOVE & HATE." This album contains a lovely mixture of melodic ballads on the first disc and heavy thrash metal tunes on the second disc. It's enough to make one mellow out while also head banging at the same time. The album focused on actions and emotions of love and hate which we battle with every day. Learning how to love thy neighbor and not hate thine enemy is a Biblical principle that we all have tackled with at some point in our lives. It may have appeared as if Dynamite Daniel didn't have much to say on this record as much as he did on his highly anticipated predecessor "SOCIAL DISORDER," when truthfully he did. This album is truly a classic!

In the summer of 2020, Dynamite Daniel released his new single "SMELLS LIKE TEEN SPIRIT (LIVE)." The song was initially recorded live back in 2016 during Dynamite Daniel's show at The Delancey. Dynamite Daniel's cover of Nirvana's popular song "Smells Like Teen Spirit" turned out to be a smash hit both on stage during his performance at The Delancey and offstage when he decided to upload the live track on music websites such as NumberOneMusic and ReverbNation. "SMELLS LIKE TEEN SPIRIT (LIVE)" would later appear as the 14th track off of Dynamite Daniel's greatest hits album "THE BEST OF DYNAMITE DANIEL: VOLUME II."

In the summer of 2020, Dynamite Daniel released another new single entitled "THRASH 'N' BURN (LITTLE HIPSTER MUSIC VERSION)." The song was initially recorded back in 2018. Initially, Dynamite Daniel had no intentions to re-record a new version of his classic hit "Thrash 'N' Burn" which was the 2nd track off of his "DYNAMITE" record. Yet after being found on ReverbNation by an A&R company called Little Hipster Music who urged him to give the song new light due to its extraordinary potential, Dynamite Daniel knew that he couldn't turn down that once-in-a-lifetime offer. "THRASH 'N' BURN (LITTLE HIPSTER MUSIC VERSION)" would later appear as the 13th track off of Dynamite Daniel's greatest hits album "THE BEST OF DYNAMITE DANIEL: VOLUME II."

In the summer of 2020, Dynamite Daniel released his 2nd greatest hits album "THE BEST OF DYNAMITE DANIEL: VOLUME II." This compilation album featured all of Dynamite Daniel's best work from 2014 to 2018. It was another triumph for Dynamite Daniel.

Dynamite Daniel has been active in live shows and ministries in a few places around the New York City area. The musicians may have changed during the years that Dynamite Daniel has been in operation, but the motivation and drive of the project has always remained the same.
