About Me

All Else Failed started in 1995, released a few records, lost more then a few members, then gained a few more members. Original members are Pat, Luke, and Steve. Dave and Jimmy are now along for the ride for however long it may be. Native to the city of brotherly love, AEF is known for our emotionally intense live shows and original sound. Our latest release, "This Never Happened", was released in the summer of 2004 and is our most progressive sound yet.
