- Release Notes ------------------------------------------------------------- -
In today's hardcore/metal scene, it's easy for anyone to become jaded by the
constant clones of, what is basically, the same band with hundreds of
different names. We've all heard it; the same riff accompanied by the
growling vocals and simultaneous "chug-chug" breakdowns. So, we wait and
maybe search the music section on Myspace for a breath of fresh air.
Thankfully, hidden in the obscure depths of the internet are bands that give
this genre hope, and if you look hard enough, you can find them.
One of these noteworthy bands is Lansing, Michigan's well kept secret, For
the Fallen Dreams. Formed in late 2003 and recently signing with Rise Records
(The Devil Wears Prada, Drop Dead Gorgeous) in the summer of 2007, these
young men show incredible promise through songs that showcase poignant and
powerful writing, both lyrically and musically while still staying in touch
with their hardcore/metal roots. Their music displays a well-done balance of
metal and melody. Guitarists, Jim Hocking and Jason Spencer show a variety of
ranges while shifting back and forth between hard-hitting metal riffs and
some rather melodic guitar lines. Given their ability to draw the listener in
with brutally honest lyrics about life, relationships, and struggle, the band
shows solidarity for their future as a band to be taken seriously.
With 2008 shaping up to be a pretty big year for For the Fallen Dreams, I
think we'll be hearing a lot more from them. Chad, Jason, Jim, Joe and Andrew
certainly seem to be on their way to setting the bar for the future of
hardcore.
