Biography

Long Island, New York, USA (2000 – 2008)

From Autumn To Ashes(or FATA) was a band from Long Island, New York, USA. The band mixed melody with styles, and their earlier albums featured a unique dual vocal style between frontman Benjamin Perri and drummer Francis Mark. This style was very innovative at the time and earned the band widespread praise.

Following their 2000 EP Sin, Sorrow and Sadness, their debut full-length album Too Bad You’re Beautiful was released on Ferret Records in August 2001. The unique blend of melodic hardcore and innovative vocals executed on this album quickly made the band an underground success.

The bands second album The Fiction We Live, was released in September 2003 and was the first to be released on Vagrant Records. Although the album retained the intricate dual vocal style that earned the group success in the first place, the overall sound became more melodic than its predecessor, featuring a larger focus on Fran Mark’s singing presence. Following the albums release, the band made videos for ‘The After Dinner Payback’ which featured on the ‘Freddy vs Jason’ soundtrack, and also ‘Lilacs and Lolita’ and ‘Milligram Smile’. The album also marked the final appearances of guitarist Scott Gross and bassist Mike Pilato.

Featuring a new lineup of Benjamin Perri (vocals), Brian Deneeve (guitar, piano, backing vocals) and Francis Mark (drums, vocals) alongside new members Jon Cox (guitar) and Josh Newton (bass, backing vocals), Abandon Your Friends was released on Vagrant in August 2005. Due to problems with vocalist Ben and his contributions to the band, the album featured an increased focus on drummer/vocalist Fran Mark, and an overall lighter approach, marking a slight departure from the traditional FATA sound.
