Since 2004, Alesana have earned a reputation for their energetic and memorable live shows, and the raw, honest intensity of their albums. In 2005, Alesana was the first band to join Tragic Hero Records in 2005 and soon released their breakthrough album On Frail Wings of Vanity and Wax. With a musical style shifting between light and heavy sounds, Alesana have won a legion of fanatical fans, and their Epitaph debut A Place Where the Sun Is Silent will only build on that reputation.
