Editor's note

For Today's metalcore faith and social conscience

A Sioux Falls band whose lyrics about religion and justice defined their decade-long run.

If you want to hear what they were about, start with 'King' and 'Fearless.' Those tracks capture the band's blend of heavy sound and clear-eyed conviction.

For Today mattered because they didn't just play metalcore, they used it to talk about faith and social issues in a way that felt urgent. Songs like 'King' and 'Fearless' became anthems for listeners who wanted heavy music with something to say. Mattie Montgomery's direct approach in interviews and lyrics made the band's message impossible to ignore.

They started in Sioux Falls in 2005, releasing 'Ekklesia' in 2008. Albums like 'Breaker' and 'Immortal' found their audience in the metalcore scene, with tracks like 'Flesh And Blood' becoming staples. They kept putting out records through 2016's 'Wake' before wrapping things up.

Archive material and source history

For Today formed in Sioux Falls, South Dakota in 2005 with Mattie Montgomery on vocals, Ryan Leitru and Mike Reynolds on guitar, David Morrison on bass, and David Puckett on drums. Their first album, 'Ekklesia,' came out in 2008. The band's lyrics often dealt with faith and social issues, which sometimes drew attention beyond the music itself.

They put out 'Breaker' in 2010, which included the song 'Fearless.' That album and 2012's 'Immortal' found an audience in the metalcore scene. Some of their other tracks, like 'King' and 'Flesh And Blood,' became staples for their listeners.

Montgomery's direct approach to discussing religion and justice in interviews and lyrics was a consistent part of the band's identity. For Today released several more albums, including 'Fight the Silence' in 2014 and 'Wake' in 2016, before ending their run.
