With humble beginnings in Baltimore and then solidifying their lineup in Raleigh, North Carolina, the genre-blending quintet calledalesana has come a long way in order to bring you their musical vision and incendiary live performance. Exploring the heights oflove and the lows of heartbreak and bitterness that often follow, alesana's music strikes a universal chord with audiencesaround the world. Fans embrace the emotional sincerity and undeniable intensity of the music while reveling in the recklessabandon with which alesana performs. Formed in October 2004 when guitarist/vocalist Shawn Milke, guitarist Patrick Thompson,vocalist Dennis Lee, bassist Steven Tomany, and drummer Daniel Magnuson, alesana quickly became a staple of the burgeoningRaleigh post-hardcore scene. Metal and hardcore fans were drawn to alesana's gut-wrenching vocals, solid riffs, blasting doublebass and intelligent breakdowns. Progressive fans were drawn to their cascading song structures and deft control of dynamics,and emo/pop punk fans were drawn to their catchy hooks and heartfelt lyrics. In May 2005, alesana signed with Tragic HeroRecords and began work on their debut EP. « hide
