History

The Frailty of Words and No Wings to Speak Of (1998–2001)

Hopesfall began as a Christian hardcore band in 1998. They recorded their first album, The Frailty of Words, that same year, and it was released in November 1999 on Christian hardcore/punk label DTS Records. Following the release of The Frailty of Words, founding bassist Christopher Kincaid left the band, to be replaced by Pat Aldrich. In 2001, the band released an EP, No Wings to Speak Of with Ryan Fudala of Philadelphia recording bass.

The Satellite Years (2002–2004)

The period between the release of No Wings to Speak of and 2002's The Satellite Years saw the band signed to Trustkill Records as well as the departure of founding vocalist Doug Venable, and bassist Pat Aldrich. Jay Forrest replaced Venable, and would remain with the band until their breakup in 2008. Chad Waldrup replaced Aldrich as bassist, and later took on guitar duties after Ryan Parrish left the band due to "personal differences" in the wake of the recording of The Satellite Years. Mike Tyson played bass for the band on the Satellite Years tour, later joining the band as a permanent member. Waldrup departed the band shortly after taking over guitar duties, and was replaced by Dustin Nadler, who remained with the band until their breakup. In addition to these lineup changes, the release of The Satellite Years saw Hopesfall de-emphasizing the religious influences on their music. The Satellite Years was recorded at Great Western Record Recorders studio by Matt Talbott from HUM.
