Falling In Reverse [Promo]/[News]


[Fact] - Many of you may (or may not) be familiar with the post-hardcore band Escape the Fate. Those of you who have heard specially their notorious of them may also know their first lead singer, the notorious "bad boy" (I hate using that phrase) Ronnie Radke.  Well, long story short, Radke wound up in some deep trouble with the law, and spent some time in prison.  During this sentence, Escape the Fate kicked Ronnie out of the band.  When he got out, Radke started a new band, and some songs even tell the story of what happened to Ronnie.

[Opinion] - From the looks of them, Falling In Reverse appears to be a lame emo band.  This is not the case.  In fact, as far as I can tell, they're better than Escape the Fate.  The strange but still musical style masters epic (as in story-telling) and oftentimes vulgar lyrics, impressive articulate singing, good screaming, and the balanced mixture of all other instruments.  This is one of the more musical and creative bands of our time.

Although this is more a [Promo] article, it's also under the [News] category because their premier album "The Drug in Me is You" was released July 26, 2011.  It is easily one of the best albums to come out this year, and rivals Any Man In America (Blue October's newest masterpiece) in story-telling and expression.  Feel free to give it a listen, but Falling In Reverse has my recommendation.
