Hailing from the heart of the Pennsylvania's Coal Region, rock quartet Faith In Exile takes influences such as Alice In Chains, Nothingface, and Type O Negative and melds them to create an end product is their own unique brand of dark yet melodic hard rock. Concentrating on solid songwriting and a spectacular live show rather than having a trendy image or gimmicky sound, Faith In Exile has built a large and rapidly growing fan base in eastern and central Pennsylvania. Originally formed in 2005, the band went through 3 major lineup changes before solidifying the roster of vocalist/guitarist Rob Allison, guitarist Brandon Foti, bassist Allen Buehner, and drummer Ron Gubala. Since their inception the boys have earned their way onto the big stage through tireless promotion and constant playing, sharing the stage with bands such as Alice In Chains, Buckcherry, Tantric, Black Stone Cherry, Red, The Showdown, Ra, Wicked Wisdom, Days of the New, In This Moment, and countless other nationally known acts. The band opened the Locobazooka Festival 2006 in Manchester, MA which featured Alice In Chains as the headliner and also showcased for various record labels at the AllBiz Label Showcase in Columbus, OH in 2006. The band has received airplay on local radio stations 97.9X, 91.3 WXAC, 1450 WPAM, and countless online stations. The past 2 winters the band earned trips to the Millenium Music Conference 12 and 13 in Harrisburg, PA, widely regarded as one of the largest and most attended music conferences/showcases on the east coast. They have been featured in music publications such as Pennsylvania Musician and Shinbone Magazine. The band's first EP/CD ?Three Feet Under, Halfway Home? garnered favorable reviews from fans and critics alike which further spread the band's music and led to the subsequent planning of a full-length album release. The first demos of this new album comprise the band's new promotional EP ?A New Shade Of Black,? which reflects the melancholy mood of their hometown of Pottsville, PA as much as it does the band's hard rock and metal roots. With the oldest member of the band just 23 years old, F.I.E. showcases songwriting ability and performance skills that are well beyond their years. The band has worked songs from their latest EP into their live set and is currently writing new material to be recorded on the band's upcoming full length album. The band has confirmed that the album will be released in November 2009 and have announced their affiliation with Thorium Productions, with whom they have secured management. Thorium Productions' studio has been chosen as the site where the album will be recorded. Pre-production will begin in June 2009.
