Fear Before the March of Flames (now known as Fear Before) is an experimental/rock band that formed in Aurora, Colorado in 2002. Their initial sound carried out on their first two records was closer to a melding of screamo, hardcore, and metalcore, drawing influence from the likes of Converge, The Blood Brothers, and Botch. Some even considered them during this time period to be mathcore because of their technical riffs and song structure.
They released their debut album, Odd How People Shake, in 2003 on Rise Records, and after gaining some notoriety, were signed to EQUAL VISION RECORDS, who re-released their debut in the January 2004. Their debut was primarily in the vein of post-hardcore, featuring a mix of screamed vocals on the part of David Marion and clean singing provided by Adam Fisher. The instrumental work on Odd How People Shake is best described as typical of that of most melodic metalcore artists of the day, and it is rumoured that every song on the album is based on a movie (“Sarah Goldfarb, Where are Your Manners?”, for example, is supposedly about Requiem for a Dream, while on their sophomore album, Art Damage, “The Story of the Curious Oysters” has more to do with the Disney movie, Alice in Wonderland). It is interesting and worth noting that the band’s cover art on all three of their albums feature skyscrapers.

No one cares, all their releases are good in different ways, because they constantly change it up. You all need to shut the fuck up because A) most of YOU LISTEN TO GARBAGE and B) credit where credit is due.

Povey88 i feel you. there was a good buzz around them after art damage. i think mouth was too heavy for kids. it was much deeper. although i like what they were saying with art damage. people mature though. no one wants to write the same stuff they did as kids. no one is making anyone listen to what they're putting out. if you don't like it then don't listen.

it does come down to taste, I think TAOM is way better than any of their other albums.

TAOM is not significantly better than any of their albums. All of their albums are on the same level. Art Damage slightly better for me, but i guess that comes down to tastes...

The Always Open Mouth is a masterpiece. Say what you want about the band, but that album alone gives them my respect, despite their other significantly less powerful releases.
