Timefall's 'Ember City' on BBC Radio Essex 18th April 2008
TIMEOGRAPHY
Timefall's first lineup was established in 2006 - Jonathan Tatum, Michael Lennon, Matthew Shepherd and Dan Russell would form the basis of the band for the next 18 months.
Rather than being a band that followed current trends, Timefall remained adamant and stuck to their roots, fusing influences from many different musical areas and disciplines. The band was always looking to take their song-writing to new levels, whilst staying true to the beliefs that motivated them to play music.
Since Timefall exploded onto the stage in July 2006 they have taken the UK by storm, amassing a cult following among musicians and fans across the globe from South America to Australia.
2007 saw the release of Timefall's first self-produced album 'Into the Shadows' which featured the acclaimed 18 minute song 'The Last Day on Earth' (which then went on to win the 'Long-Track of the year award' at Rock247online).
2007 was also a good year for live shows with gigs taking place all across the country. In the summer Timefall took part in many big festivals such as Bloodstock Open Air, Bulldog Bash and Rockoff Festival. Later in the year Timefall was priviledged to play alongside progressive metal giants 'Threshold' at the Classic Rock Society's Autumn Rockfest.
As 2007 drew to a close Dan decided to leave the band to go to university, and soon afterwards young virtuoso Rich Hinks would become the new bass player in Timefall. In January 2008 the band entered the studio again to make a short 2 track EP of their most recent songs.
Just days after the mixing for the new EP was complete, Michael would exit the band as part of a mutual agreement and the band recruited talented music student Lloyd Musto to fill the vacant role.
2008 is now well underway and Timefall are excited to return to playing concerts again with the two new members. Things have been very productive recently and many new songs are taking shape (including a new 23 minute epic!!!)
REVIEWS
TIMEFALL @ ROCKOFF FESTIVAL
At around 15 bands per stage per day, it would take me yoinks to mention them all but highlights for me were early on Saturday, TIMEFALL. one of the best bands around at the moment. Like a cross between a 70's underground/prog rock band seeking ever harder time changes and a bang up to date metal outfit. It sounds like it should be too busy for a metal fest but it worked and the crowd were very enthusiastic.

TIMEFALL GIG @ THE DOME (TUFNELL PARK)
Finally we will finish with the last band of the evening, Timefall.. This is another English group, whose formation took place in 2005. It is formed by 4 members: Jonathan Tatum (vocals and keyboards), Matt Shepherd (guitar), Dan Russell (bass gitar) and Michael Lennon (drums). This band is completely different to Messiah and Kyrb Grinder. They mix many styles of music, but I think they are characterised by symphonic metal. They have many instrumental parts in their music which make you enter in a fantastic atmosphere as introduction, and after it they change from this melancholic atmosphere to a complete protagonism of guitars and Jonathan's voice, which can be very variable because he cab change the register of his voice with no problem, regarding to many other big rock vocals. Specifically they have a song which lasts more than 18 minutes, in which they showed us all that this band can offer. It was incredible to see something like that, the song is titled "The Last Day On Earth", and is a complete masterpiece. Here they have demonstrated the high level of composition that they have. They showed us another song titled "Ember City" which lasts more than 6 minutes, so you can see the level of this band, they make great songs with much quality introducing keyboards in it.
