All Gone Dead - Fallen and Forgotten

This was the only release by the british Deathrock Revival band All Gone Dead. Its a great album that I found the other day when I was on VampireFreaks. Kinda like a modernised Theatre of Pain meets Rise Against, which I like to call, Melodic Deathrock. Nothing else I can say so lemme give you as history of the band;

All Gone Dead were formed in London in 2004 by ex-Tragic Black bassist Stich as a solo experiment. Somewhere along the line, another Goth musician, Markabre, join. Stich's then girlfriend (now wife) Barb would join shortly afterwards as the band's bassist. Then Mike Mihai ended up joining. Making the band a quartet. Markabre would soon leave due to musical differences. Despite this, the band kept on going, releasing a three demo, 2005's Concieving The Subversion. It got them an award for best unsigned Goth band in the German Gothic Magazine. In 2006 they released their only album, Fallen and Forgotten, which got them a cult following AND an appearence at Wave Gotik-Treffen. Sadly, they broke up in 2008. According to their myspace page, All Gone Dead is dead.
