Lest anyone think about correcting this, I will mention that the band's name is supposed to be lower-case. It's not a typo or lazy formatting. Isomorphic 21:25, 5 May 2004 (UTC)

Currently (Jan 17 2006) on Hopesfall's official website Hopesfall, the first news item, from the band, references the band as Hopesfall. The band's MySpace page Myspace/Hopesfall consistently uses the capitalized version. The artist page on their label Trustkill.com also references them as such. The only time that the band formally listed themselves without the capitalization was before the (latest) major lineup change, and before the release of "A Types". From inception until Parrish and Morgan left the band, they sometimes identified themselves as ".hopesfall." with leading and trailing periods. Interestingly, this is still the case on the pre "A Types" but still label-penned bio to be found on Trustkill's site Hopesfall Bio. I think that with the abundance of current capitalized usages by the band themselves, along with the Soundscan registrations Amazon.com Hopesfall listing, we can say with confidence that they have moved on.Ombligotron 00:05, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] A few changes

I have changed a couple of things, firstly changed the song off the no wings to speak of ep from april left with silence to end of an era which is the bands most prolific song, and changed the opinion that the bands new album is strongly favoured in the underground rock scene, which I feel is simply not true. adamshappy

[edit] The Frailty Of Words

I've found no evidence that The Frailty Of Words was ever released by Takehold records. According to the bio given on a page at Amazon.com, the band was approached by a man named Vic Cuccia to record and release the album. Vic Cuccia is listed as Co-Producer and Executive Producer on the DTS release of the album. All of this highly suggests that Vic Cuccia was in charge of DTS Records and that the album's initial release, and only release as far as I know, was through DTS Records. Neither Takehold Records nor Chad Johnson, the owner of Takehold Records, are mentioned anywhere in the album and its liner notes. If someone can provide evidence that proves me wrong, please do so.

[edit] the frailty of words?

you missed the album 'the frailty of words', which was after 'no wings to speak of' but before 'the satellite years'.Entropicflux 18:18, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

The Frailty of Words was the debut album, but it is little talked about. The band doesn't seem to acknowledge the release, most likey because of the changes in the style and the line up since it's release until "No wings to speak of" -afroXcore

[edit] A Types

I notice the text of the article regarding the A Types album has been changed to a more promotional sounding version. The album alienated plenty of the bands fanbase, and was recieved with widely negative reviews. I feel simply stating that it was disliked by purists but brought a new fanbase to the band is incorrect and quite self serving. If noone has any objections, ill change it in about a week.
