Statement from We Are The Fallen

Hey Guys,
Sorry I've been MIA lately. I've been super busy with work and am so exhauseted when I get home. Nate has been doing a great job of keeping the main page up and I appreciate everything the moderators and everyone else is doing.

Carly asked me to share the following statement with everyone. We have a great group here and I think everyone works together to handle issues well. I just want to remind everyone that while respectful discussions and disagreements are always welcome, anything said that is hurtful or discriminatory is unacceptable. As always, please report any issues to me or one of the moderators.

Latest on Carly and We Are The Fallen

It's been a long time since our last update, so I though I would update everyone on what Carly and the band have been doing.

After completing demos for some songs, We Are The Fallen went their separate ways for some rest and relaxation. Carly has just returned from vacation to Ireland and Italy.

According to the official We Are The Fallen twitter page, the band is scheduled to be back together in the studio on October 26th to begin the next step in the recording process.

Hopefully more big news will be coming in the near future.

Back from LA

Mel and I got back from our little LA vacation last night (yawn). While we were there, we had lunch with Carly. She's doing great and is so happy to be making music with the boys. As always, she is so grateful for everyone's continued support. She talked about the feedback she gets on Twitter - she is reading your messages, so keep showing her your support!

Carly played us some of the music she and the band have been working on - it's amazing. Even unfinished, the depth and power of the music is obvious. I know the wait is painful (trust me, the taste we got just made us hungry for more), but it is going to be SO worth it. It's clear that everyone in the band is bringing their best to the table, and amazingly, the sum of their talents is even greater than each of their parts alone.

This is the music that Carly was meant to make.

p.s. Thanks Nate, for keeping the site up to date as we've been traveling. You're a life saver. And thanks to everyone who sends in news. We truly appreciate it.
