about
Downfall Road is an American rock band. Their influences include Alice in Chains and Days of the New. They have been described by fans as "acoustic metal". Formed in 2001, band founder Dan Gaspar recorded and released the first album, "Mass Communication" by himself in 2003. Quickly a five-piece band was created for a tour to promote the album. This first line-up included Neil Haletky on lead guitar, Kristian Hermansen on drums, Keith Barrette on rhythm guitar, Mike Gualtieri on bass with Dan Gaspar on vocals. They toured New England through 2005 and began recording a second studio album as a full band. However in the fall of 2005 Keith and Mike both amicably parted ways with the band. A second line-up was formed with Gibb David on rhythm guitar and the band continued to work on recording their second album. But soon after Kristian left leaving only Dan, Neil, and Gibb to finish recording the second album which was slated for release in 2007. However Gibb moved to California soon afterward leaving only Dan and Neil to finish the task of completing the second album. In the meantime Dan rounded up any material he could find from live recordings and polished them into the Official Bootlegs album which was released as a free download from the band's website. The band now hopes to release their next album in 2011. www.downfallroad.com www.myspace.com/downfallroad User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply
