I
have to admit that Farewell, My Love aren't that new to me. In fact
I've been a fan for a while so you can imagine how excited I am about
finally getting into contact with them (well, as far as some replies
on twitter count as contact).
What
many teenagers, including myself, look for in music is a place to
escape. A chance to forget our daily struggles and to let go. We look
for bands who understand what's going on in our minds and who use
their music to express our feelings. We let their lyrics speak for
us, we let them inspire us to carry on, we let them give us strength
to keep fighting.
Farewell, My Love definitely belong to the bands who are capable of doing this for me. They remind me of My Chemical Romance during their Welcome To The Black Parade era but vocalist Rian Howell has a very remarkable voice which separates his band from many other theatrical rock bands out there. The other four members, guitarists Röbby Creasey and Logan Thayer, bassist Charlee Conley and drummer Chad Kowal complete this unique style.
Founded in 2011, they released their first EP A Dance You Won't Forget the same year and were signed for Standby Records soon after.

This
EP is quite impressive for a band's first EP because it lets the
listener think that these guys haven't done anything else since
forever when in fact they're only at the beginning of a promising
career. My absolute favourite song on A
Dance You Won't Forget is
Just
Another Soul.
No matter how often I listen to it, it always sends shivers down my
spine, mostly because of the lyrics. “Scars
run down your arms to make you feel like something. I'm so lonely and
it's killing me, it's tearing me apart.“ Not only do they know how
it feels, they're also role models for all of their fans who struggle
with the same self-destructive addictions. These guys are the best
example to show how it gets better and how dreams come true when you
work hard enough.
In
early 2013, Farewell, My Love released their second EP Mirror,
Mirror with three brand new
songs, a cover of Bon Jovi's song It's My Life and
an acoustic version of Just Another Soul. If
I wasn't broke as hell, I'd download both EPs because they're simply
amazing. So, if you have some spare money, go and download their
songs! You won't regret it, I promise!
I'm very excited to watch the five guys from Phoenix, Arizona grow and develop, I'm one million percent sure that they'll create many more beautiful songs and memories for all of us in the future!
