From Autumn To Ashes

Recorded at a record store on their Long Island home turf, Live At Looney Tunes as a parting shot before these these post-hardcore veterans enter into an "indefinite hiatus." The mixed-up elements of metal and hardcore, ribboning guitar leads and schizoid vocal switch (from growl to melody to screech) come across with far more single-minded ferocity in the absence of studio gloss. Where bands in this scene tend to follow each other around, FATA throw so many variables into the concoction that the removal of their contribution will surely be felt.
