FAREWELL RADIANCE

Violent times breed violent art.

About Me


"Farewell Radiance" can mean many things. To me, it means a goodbye to innocence. There are far too many tragic and awful things happening every day on this earth for me to keep my head in the clouds and pretend that it will all work out, or that ANYTHING is forever. There is no permanence here, but with loss, whether it be of innocence or anything else, comes the growth of insight and reason; two things I am very grateful for. -Adam
We write music with the intent to inspire. Whatever that means to you, so be it. Our sound is heavy, and is influenced by all the music we came up with, as well as what's out there right now. You name it, and we have absorbed it and done our best to make something uniquely our own with that. We know there are 10,001 metal bands out there all vying for the attention of all of you throughout the various "internets", and I don't expect you to jump on board just because we exist. No one in this band has an ego about what we do. We just love the FUCK out of music itself, and we enjoy making it more than most things in life. What I can tell you, is that every note, beat and lyric you hear on this page all come from our hearts. We've got nothing but passion for music, and that is what this is about for us.

I mean no offense to our friends in Kansas...

...Kansas is a beautiful state, and this is a problem that is not at all limited to Kansas. I would say it's a problem throughout our country. I just love the poignant commentary the below comic deliv...
