The Forgotten Falling are headlining their first ever tour! With some of metal's finest acts for support. Starting on 9/11 in Washington D.C., the tour will pass through Merchants of Metal IV: Hell on Earth for the Forgotten Falling, Fragile Agony, and Werewolf Concerto to play at the event.

The order is:

Coffin Lords 7:00 - 8:15
DeathBreth 8:30 - 9:30
Fragile Agony 9:45 - 11:00
Werewolf Concerto 11:15 - 12:20
The Forgotten Falling 12:45 - 2:00

The order was constructed out of practicality. Coffin Lords will go first, leaving band member and DeathBreth drummer Dümlaut on stage to perform a drum solo while DeathBreth sets up. After that, Fragile Agony will go as a middle act. Werewolf Concerto will perform, ending with the song "Graveyard Ghoul Fiends" which features Forgotten Falling guitarist Miyako Rey performing a guest solo. She will perform a lone solo while The Forgotten Falling sets up, and then they will close the show.

The headliners:

The Forgotten Falling: An extremely famous progressive trance-metal band that blends headbanging riffs and ripping solos with trance melodies and breakbeats. Originally a side project blending emo band Sanguine Symphony with goth metal group Whispers to the Fallen, they have carved their way to the top of the charts with their innovative sound. Their lead guitarist, 5'2", Russian-born, Japanese Miyako Rey, is widely regarded as one of the finest shredders in recent times.

The supporting acts will be:

Werewolf Concerto: A fairly recent thrash metal band whose debut album ripped up the charts with outstanding sales. They are slated to become legendary with their breed of technical and energetic thrash. The band is fronted by Jacob Wolfman, an extremely fast guitarist and talented frontman.

DeathBreth: A Suleuanian Death Metal band on the same record label as the Forgotten Falling. Being around a long time, gaining popularity in the underground metal scene, they are known for shows that resemble battlefields in their intensity. Their drummer Dümlaut is also the drummer for supergroup Coffin Lords.

Coffin Lords: A supergroup formed by Jacob Wolfman as the lead guitarist. Other members include Dümlaut on drums, Mike Seven of DeathFace on Bass, and Fang of Gravestompers on vocals. Their sound combines elements of all the members' original bands, resulting in a brutal brew of pounding metal with a melodic edge. Since Mike Seven is on the Trinity Tour, Angelica Duon of Dying Unholy will be filling in for him. Duon was once the bassist of Sanguine Symphony, and had left on bad terms with Hayden Frasco, now the frontman of The Forgotten Falling. This will be the first time they've worked together in years.

Fragile Agony: An experimental progressive metal band added at the last minute to the roster. Their insane time signatures and twisted riffs are the very definition of technicality. They have just released their newest album "The Battle of End Times" which has received rave reviews for it's awesomeness.

Rainbow in the Dark (Dio Cover) [Single]

Date Released: 10/18/2010   Tracks: 4
Sales: 8   Listens: 10

During The Aphelion Tour, Werewolf Concerto recorded their third record on their tour bus. Once it was complete, they invited tour mates The Forgotten Falling on their bus to hear the new record and to offer them a proposition: to cover a Dio classic. FF agreed, and the two bands got to work. With Wolfman and Frasco's vocals tearing through it, Yumishi Rey tackling the keyboards, and an epic 2-minute shredding battle between Miyako Rey and Jacob Wolfman, this is a cover to remember.
