Punk / Rock / Screamo
New EP "Remnants" in OUT NOW.
PURCHASE @ iTUNES
Denver, Colorados For A Few released their freshman EP, Remnants in December of 2006. Recorded by Tom Pfaeffle (Gatsbys American Dream, Fear Before the March of the Flames, and Heavy Heavy Low Low among others), the album showcases the diversity of sound, influences, and personalities of a band who are primed to take music to a whole new level.
Formed in early 2006, For A Few originally had 4 members: Jason Zolman (lead guitar); Alex Gillette (bass); Roger Eimer (guitar/vocals); and Ben Richter (drums). All came from other established bands with differing backgrounds but with a common vision: For A Few is not a hobby; it is a career. Jon McKinney was brought in after the release of the EP to create a fuller sound. The band is always reaching for the largest, purest sound possible.
Self sufficient and armed with a strong work ethic and drive, For A Few has recorded, promoted, and toured without outside help or influence. This independence fuels their sound. No two songs are alike, and no one could accuse them of being a knock off of any up-and-coming band. Their songs are not written with classifications in mind either; such as here's the "punk anthem", this is the "screamo song", and this one is the "rock ballad". Each member of the band is a perfectionist at heart. Writing sessions are open forums; anyone can submit material, but only the best ideas are kept.
For A Few has fans in cities across the U.S. because of their live shows. Anyone who comes is guaranteed to have a great time. Every show has an energy infused pit. Its not uncommon to witness body surfing, pillow fights, and even rioting from time to time. Every show closes with the crowd coming up on stage during the song, Seven Years.
Every musician took that first step (guitar lessons e.g.), because they at one point in their lives were moved by a bands music. To be that band for just one person would be a dream. What an honor it would be to be associated with a persons memory forever. It wouldnt hurt either to have a song that a person would want to play in their car on a nice day with the windows rolled down, driving fast, with no traffic in sight, and singing along at the top of their lungs.
The future is bright for For A Few. They will keep on working hard, writing new music, winning fans over, putting on amazing shows, and as one fan put it, rocking faces until there is no face left un-rocked.

I love this band, the music brings back the vibe of the
late 80s and 90s emo harcoe bands. Young people, get
learned. This band is closer to the real emo than most
of the bands out there.

...is \"Angels With Dirty Faces\" a reference to Sum
41? I\'m rather confused about that...
