In naming their third album The Phoenix Throne, Dead To Fall managed to sum up the themes surrounding both their new songs and their lives. Weathering more than the usual number of line up changes through the years gives them remarkable insight into the nuts and bolts of reinvention and the challenge of continuing to grow musically while building a loyal fan base. The struggle to evolve is a rousing success by any terms: The Phoenix Throne is a quantum leap forward, stronger, more metallic and more ambitious than their previous work. While some of the players in Dead To Fall changed, the band steered a course to tried and true collaborators, choosing previous producer (Eric Rachel) and packaging artist (Paul Romano). Why fix what isnt broken? asks vocalist Jon Hunt, Eric understood where we had been musically and the progression we had undergone. The fantastic thing is he is able to tailor his sounds to the band, instead of imposing a trademark sound on each band that comes his way. As for Romano, Hunt explains, Pauls art walks the line between deceptively simple and elaborate. We love art that ties in with the other elements of the album, and no one is more detailed and thoughtful during the process.

Lyrically, Hunt broke new ground as well, with more conceptual lyrics and adventurous musicianship. In songs like Guillotine Dream, a six minute-plus opus that imagine the jarring thoughts of a condemned man awaiting execution. Doomed to Failure portrays two dreams clashing with catastrophic results; it is only when one is dead that realization that the constant struggle provided all power, but by then it is too late. Classically informed arpeggios throw sparks in the dark landscape while alternating vocal tones tell the story from two perspectives... READ MORE HERE.
