Falling Forward was an early to mid-1990s emocore / post-hardcore band from Louisville , Kentucky , USA .

history

In 1991 Chris Higdon (vocals) and Benny Clark (bass) formed the band. Only three years after the founding - in 1994 - after the EP Let This Day Pass with Hand Me Down, the band's debut album on the Initial Records label comes out.

In 1995 the band broke up. Some of the former members of the band found themselves in the more indie rock-heavy post-hardcore band Elliott .

style

The band plays what is known as a typical emotional hardcore style. Although her sound has some influences from the recently developed indie rock / alternative rock , her style is still characterized by the more staunch D.C sound , loud-quiet dynamics, melancholy vocal parts paired with hard-played song parts interspersed with screams and lines of text.
