Empire falls started back in 1996 when Bryan Scorch and Hunter fleed from the ruins of their former band Scorch. At a start it was only Bryan on vocals and bass, Hunter on guitar and a drummachine doing the beating.

It didnt take long untill they filled the band with Billy on bass and Will Goodyear on drums. Read more on Last.fm
