Archive material and source history
Failure Anthem formed in 1999 in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, with Chris Robison on vocals and guitar, Matt Leps on bass, and Jake Smith on drums. They worked through the early years playing local shows and building a following without much label support.
In 2005, they signed with Razor Records and released their debut album 'The Sound of Silence.' The single '3 AM' from that album connected with listeners and helped establish their presence in alternative rock. Other songs like 'First World Problems' and 'Paralyzed' became part of their catalog.
Their music tended toward atmospheric arrangements and lyrics that dealt with personal themes, which sometimes drew attention beyond just the sound. They kept recording and playing through various phases of the rock landscape.
