WATF in the UK Press
In advance of their show at King's College on Tuesday, March 23, WATF has made several appearances in the British press.
The band was featured in an article in Rock Sound magazine:
A quote from the article:
We Are The Fallen have spoken about the “adventure” of their debut album before their worldwide live debut. The new band, comprising of ex American Idol contestant Carly Smithson, former Evanescence members Ben Moody, John LeCompt and Rocky Gray as well as former Disturbed and Static X bassist Marty O’Brien put the first song they composed together, Bury Me Alive, online for steaming in January but are keeping details of the full length close to their chests.

Also from Rock Sound online:
“Open ears is all you can ask of people.” So says Carly Smithson, ex-American Idol contestant and vocalist with We Are The Fallen (featuring the former core of Evanescence), who has spoken of the inspiration behind their first song ‘Bury Me Alive’, the origins of the group and the perils of being dismissed before they’ve had the chance to prove themselves.

And they also were featured in Classic Rock magazine as the "Gig of the Week":
For Smithson, We Are The Fallen completes her dream – after exiting American Idol – of becoming a creative force in a ‘vital’ band environment.
Don’t be put off by Smithson’s American Idol association. Her appearances were the highlights of Season Seven of the show (she was a sixth-place finisher) and were much rockier than you might imagine. Moody describes Smithson as a ‘true partner’ and a key component to We Are The Fallen’s sound.

And yet more! The band is also doing a photo shoot for Kerrang magazine, so keep your eyes open for an article and photos.

Article reveals WATF Album art; track titles
A new article on WATF is now appearing on the site Music Remedy. This is a "must read"!
The article is an in-depth look into the histories of the band members and the creative process involved in creating their new album, Tear The World Down. Most notably, the article included a list of some of the track titles:
Tear The World Down is the first fruit of that creation, a 12-track opus that swirls from the heavy rocking barrages of the first single, "Bury Me Alive,” "Burn," "Through Hell" and "Without You" to the emotive balladry of "Sleep Well, My Angel" and "I Am Only One" to the epic construction of the title track. Electric guitar crunch blends with majestic orchestrations, all encasing melodies that flaunt classic compositional sensibilities and state-of-the-art soundscapes. Add to that the kind of cajones for a daring overhaul of Madonna's "Like a Prayer" -- an idea Moody had while on a camping trip -- that's even more dramatic and in-your-face than the original. Moody calls We Are The Fallen "a huge, symphonic metal pop monster," and he's quick to note that's the result of a five-way team effort.
And also included is the cover art for the album:

More Behind-the-scenes Photos from BMA Video Shoot
Check out this article from Blabbermouth.com relating more about the video shoot for "Bury Me Alive", most notably a reported online release date.
The "Bury Me Alive" video concept is described as follows: "This video will take us through the stages of burial as a visual metaphor for when someone crosses you or has 'sold out' something sacred. Although the video will have a dark, vintage Victorian flair, it will be shot and designed to ultimately convey a timeless theme and story."
The clip will make its online debut on March 23.
