Farewell to Freeway formed in Los Angeles in the late 1990s around Scott Stephenson on vocals and guitar, Brian Van Burgh on bass, and John Petrucci on drums. They put out their first album, 'The Silence Within,' in 1999. The band's sound pulled from different places, mixing post-hardcore with atmospheric touches and some electronic textures.
Their catalog includes songs like 'Speak Your Words' and 'Promises Of The Gods,' and albums like 'In the Wake of Your Absence' from 2002 and 'The Great Collapse' from 2004. They had a song called 'Held Down With Busted Arms' that connected with some listeners for its direct approach to difficult themes.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
