notes

For fans in today’s music scene, it is a rare occurrence when a single band stands out far among the rest and makes a definite impression on all those who behold their performance. Such is the case with Under Falling Skies, or “UFS” as they are known to fans of the Western Mass music scene. UFS generates a feeling in its audience which can only be described as awe. No one who observes their performance can deny the power, complexity, and grace of their music. Beginning in 2002 with a lineup featuring brothers Chad Kuzontkoski (guitar) and Colby Kuzontkoski (drums), Eric Baldwin (guitar/vocals) and Brandon Eckert (bass), Under Falling Skies set to work on achieving a sound that is both original and captivating. The band soon recorded a four song demo which spread through Massachusetts and Connecticut. This would prove to be only a small hint of what UFS could accomplish. After a lineup change that now features Nicki St. James on bass, the band released their first official CD “Stories Untold” in 2005. The songs found in this first release challenge the listener both musically and lyrically. The boldness of the album immediately captivates the listener, refusing to let go of their attention. Throughout the musical experience, the listener is treated to a variety of techniques; all with the constant surge of impressive hooks and harmonies filling each song. Songs such as “Frantic,” “Fine Line,” and “Repentance” paint a picture of humanity conflicted with the forces of faith, betrayal, and a search to find meaning in the trivial struggles we all must endure. Mixing in vocals with equal parts melody and fury, music filled with both hardcore sound and intricacy, UFS defines themselves through what they are not. They are not another generic band trying to get some thrills out of being on stage. They are not a fad, here today and gone tomorrow. Rather, Under Falling Skies is a rarity to behold, a true powerhouse of talent and potential whose journey in the musical realm has only just begun.
Our debut CD was just recently released and has been well received, it is available on CDBABY.COM/underfallingskies and you can download it on iTunes.

  • Can't get enough!
    author: Dougie

    It is rare that I find music I can say I love. I recieved a friends request from these guys on myspace. My first thought was. "Great, another horrible band wanting to be my friend." I decided to check out their page and I was floored. I bought the cd and I love every song. Thanks Under Falling Skies for giving hope to myspace bands. Can't wait to hear your second release!

  • amazing doesn't cover how awesome this cd is

    the sound on this cd is awesome and all the songs are great there isn't a thing i didn't like on it.

  • An epic rarity from beginning to end!

    An epic rarity from beginning to end! Under Falling Skies delivers a solid full length release worthy of national distribution and heavy radio support. I'd go as far to say this band is Grammy potential in the not too distant future. The CD "Stories Untold" pulls at your love, distrust, anger, pleasure and downright comprehension of the world around us! Thought provoking but not preachy lyrics tie this progressive yet highly palatable 10 song session into what very well might be one of the best independent releases of this genre in a very long time!

  • WoW!

    I can't write as fancy as those other guys but this cd is Awesome! It has been non stop in my cd player for two weeks now. The more I hear it the more I love it. Oh ya... Your drummer is way to good. :)

  • Your jaw will drop ! The look, The sound, The whole package !!
    author: Psychosis (Demos)

    Now im not gonna go to in depth, but this has got to be one of the best bands to come outa the greater spfld area in a while. The drummer is sick punding out agressive beats and endless solos at live shows... the lyrics are excellent and coincide great with the feel of the music. A must see live band, one show and your hooked.

  • Emotional release, catharsis at its metal best
    author: Ali McD

    Thank you UFS for such shredding, hard rock that also satisfies the human soul. You take us into battle like a trusted warrior friend. Stories Untold offers hope that instead of battling within our own suffering psycho dramas we will find our untold story of hope and release. From the first cut, Frantic, with its cranked up Rock sound to the last, Eternity, UFS has ingeniuously mastered the greatest gift that Rock can offer by this album's ability to tap into the deep wellspring of human emotion. Blessedly, they don't leave us there to suffer. I will keep coming back for more from Under Falling Skies.
