From Albany, NY, After The Fall formed in 2000 and have emerged with their fifth and best album to date, Dedication, an earnest and proficiently played strain of technical, speedy melodies that hit that sweet spot between skate punk and melodic hardcore. Recorded at The Blasting Room with prolific punk superproducer Bill Stevenson (Rise Against, NOFX, Alkaline Trio), the veterans pen a riffy and dynamic love letter to their influences and friends come and gone. The LP is a dedication to original bassist and friend Brian J Peters who passed away in October of 2013 and was released on all formats on May 12th, 2015. Listen to After The Fall’s debut Bridge Nine full-length, Dedication, in its entirety here from Substream Magazine.
