As I Lay Dying Debut 2nd Comeback Single & Video
A second song from the current incarnation of As I Lay Dying has made its way online. Titled “If I Fall,” the track arrives on the heels of last month’s “Echoes,” which marked the beginning of this new phase for the long-running metalcore group.

As I Lay Dying Premiere New Single & Music Video
As I Lay Dying have officially entered a new era with the release of their comeback single, “Echoes.” The track arrives in the wake of yet another turbulent chapter for the Californian metalcore outfit — and particularly for their controversial frontman, Tim Lambesis.

Undeterred by the allegations and upheaval, Lambesis pledged to rebuild As I Lay Dying once again, with “Echoes” serving as the first glimpse of that renewed effort. This single arrives independently via the band, emerging a few weeks ahead of their live return, which will commence towards the end of this month in Moscow, Russia.
According to the songwriting credits, the latest roster of musicians who joined Lambesis in the studio to bring this song to life includes: More...

"Our metal brother Joseph Payne has passed away. Another one gone way to young. I wasn't going to say anything until I got confirmation from his family, which I now did. At this time no cause of death has been revealed.
"Joe was a great friend, a great band member and an incredible musician. Although he played bass in ?Divine Heresy?, he was an incredible guitarist. I first saw him playing bass in Nile and right then and there, I said, 'I want that guy in my band.' After having that first conversation that night, I realized he was a great dude and from there on, we've shared some amazing moments in life and on tour,from Australia to South America to Canada to Mexico to Europe, etc.
"Joe was a very outgoing funny guy with a very friendly personality. He was loved by many and he loved all his fans and road friends. He never complained when times got tough on the road. He always helped everyone and worked his ass off when he was in DH and I admired him for being that way.
"We love you and we will miss you. Rest In Peace, my friend." More...

Most of us woke up when we felt the bus on the rumble strips and then the dirt. He woke up in time to swerve back onto our side of the road and pull over.” Continuing he notes, “thank god there was no on coming cars or 18-wheelers on the road. Everyone is fine just a little nervous.”
