Starting Out
All Shall Fade's original lineup first convened in December 2003. Shortly after, bassist John Stevenson joined the band. The band moved forward, writing their initial three songs: "Back to Life," "Smiles Fade," and "Here I Am." In March 2004, Rob Brower decided to leave the band. Guy Coletti gave up guitarist duties to Nick Goncalves, and became the lead singer of the band. All Shall Fade gave their first live performance on April 25, 2004 at the Hamilton Street Cafe and Stage in Bound Brook, NJ.
In this period, All Shall Fade released their first EP, entitled "Hit." "Hit" contained four songs: "Back to Life," "Smiles Fade," "Here I Am," and "Angel (Acoustic)." At the end of the summer, All Shall Fade played with Drive-Thru Records' Rx Bandits at the Livingston College Student Center in Piscataway NJ. This marked the last time Nick Goncalves played with the band before All Shall Fade and Goncalves amicably split. In September 2004, All Shall Fade released their second EP, titled "Run."

Famous quotes containing the word starting:
“A hook shot kisses the rim and
hangs there, helplessly, but doesn’t drop
and for once our gangly starting center
boxes out his man and times his jump
perfectly, gathering the orange leather
from the air like a cherished possession”
—Edward Hirsch (b. 1950)
“It smells like gangrene starting in a mildewed silo; it tastes like the wrath to come, and when you absorb a deep swig of it you have all the sensations of having swallowed a lighted kerosene lamp.”
—For the State of Kentucky, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
