With influences ranging from thrash metal to Gothenburg, classic heavy metal to death metal, Shadows Fall has pushed the boundaries of modern American heavy metal. Crushing riffs and searing solos named the Shadows Fall guitar duo of Bachand and Donais as unsurpassable as well as creating a brutal atmosphere to bang your head to. The ultra-tight drumming of Bittner and the gut-wrenching bass of Romanko, Shadows Fall has more than a sufficient rhythm section to back the leads. The unusual vocal style and lyrics of Fair made them a unique metal experience based upon pain and unity. Of One Blood was strongly reminiscent of Gothenburg metal while The Art of Balance was a thrash metal extravaganza. Now with the War Within, they only seem to be progressing in style.
