A Fallen Martyr /band
Fallen Martyr are a prime example of when inspiration gives way to
experimentation. Not to be categorized by any certain sub-genre label,
these five young men have cemented their status as one of the top
up-and-coming bands in the heavy metal underground by creating a sound
that is truly unique in a time when metal music has become all but
original.
Formed in Maryland in 2005 by bassist Doug Albers
and guitarist Gabriel Luis, Fallen Martyr have set out to create music
that is not only crushingly heavy, but also maintains a high level of
melody and intricate structure. Fallen Martyr are a metal band that
aren’t just trying to be the most extreme, but pushing to be the most
musically proficient as they can be. Rounded out by second guitarist
Michael Gerlach, drummer Jake Ford and classically trained front man J.
Ryan Rawlings, F.M. have already toured and played with some of heavy’s
heavyweights since the release of their six song E.P. "The Six Roots of
True Will” (recently re-released as a special edition with two new
tracks). They also took part in the first ever Metal As Art Tour in the
United States during the winter of 2010 with Starring Janet Leigh ,
Hypno5e and Woe of Tyrants.
Inspired by bands and artists from
all corners of the musical spectrum, Fallen Martyr incorporate elements
of whatever it takes to get exactly the sound that they are looking for.
Just take a listen to the six tracks on "The Six Roots of true Will”.
This is definitely not one of those albums where you will think that any
or all of the songs sound the same. Fallen Martyr specialize in
creating soundscapes that force the listener to let go and immerse
themselves within the music.
From brutalizing riffs and
pounding double bass laden with blood curdling screams, to epic sweeping
melodies intertwining with Rawlings’ shifting clean harmonic pitch, and
all topped off with tasty lead solos and sing-along-able chorus lines,
Fallen Martyr put on a clinic of technical excellence on each song they
write. This is definitely music for the sophisticated listener, having
already garnered high praises from respected metal media outlets such as
Metal Exiles, Metal Maniacs, Rock Sins, Hails & Horns and many
more.
With plans for a full length in 2010, Fallen Martyr will
be writing, recording and preparing for more tours. Until then,
headbangers in the Baltimore/D.C. area can catch the progressive
metallers gigging it up with top touring acts at hot spots like Sonar
and Rams Head Live when the band is not on the road.
For an unsigned
metal band, Fallen Martyr have already received the kind of acclaim
that some of the major label golden boys have, due to an old fashioned
work ethic and desire to improve with each passing day. With that kind
of determination, there will be nothing but big things on the horizon
for Fallen Martyr. "We are an experimental band playing music that is
not the current trend and feel this will help us stand out. We've had
our ups and downs and being in a band is not easy, especially with no
label support, but we are proud to have gotten this far on our own. That
in itself is a major accomplishment.” quotes Gabriel Luis /link
