blessthefall

Phoenix, AZ's blessthefall stormed to the forefront of the new evolution of the post-hardcore/metalcore genre with the release of critically-acclaimed second album "Witness", produced by Michael "Elvis" Baskette (Incubus, Escape The Fate, Story Of The Year). Upon release, the album debuted in the Billboard Top 200 at #56 and the Independent Chart at #6. Having played dates in 16 countries in 2010 in support of Witness with the likes of As I Lay Dying, Underoath, Atreyu, and August Burns Red, blessthefall stormed into 2011 as part of Soundwave festival in Australia. After returning from the Outback, the band went into writing mode for their third full-length album "Awakening", and started recording in May 2011. The album has already been named by Alternative Press as one of 2011’s Most Anticipated Albums. Trying to win over new fans while appeasing the old may be a difficult task for some bands, but blessthefall accept it eagerly as a challenge that they’ll work toward with their forthcoming tours and releases. “There is a lot more drive since Beau has joined the band,” Lambert said. “We know we have a lot to prove and we are all hungry for it.”
