Biography

"Kill the lights!" a growling throat commands just seconds into From First To Last's monumental debut Dear Diary, My Teen Angst Has A Bodycount. And it's in this darkness that FFTL's magnetic amalgam of influences like hardcore, rock & roll, blood curdling metal and punk fuckin' rock takes on a life all its own. Gripping, powerful, cathartic and alluring, this Los Angeles (by way of Gainesville, Florida) quintet shapes the future of music on its Epitaph debut. Just check the unique, steadfast roar of "The One Armed Boxer vs. The Flying Guillotine," which keeps pace with the Screamo movement while incorporating the atmospheric spirit of U2's Boy and the guttural bark of vintage Madball. Moments onward, FFTL throws another curveball with the riveting, evocative, "I Liked You Better Before You Were Naked On The Internet." Here, Sonny Moore's vocals are as heartfelt and immediate as his bandmates' execution is intricate and damn near invincible. From First To Last's explosive approach on Dear Diary is a natural extension of their live initiative, and at the core if it all is an unorthodox credo. "We believe in head banging like there's no tomorrow and playing until you puke," drummer Derek Bloom asserts of the group's ferocity. "We started out wanting to put out live like we always thought bands should." With two broken arms, a couple of concussions and numerous head wounds to their credit, the men of FFTL - also known for guitar mutilation and getting vertical - have met and surpassed said goals with flying colors. And as red as their concert displays have been, the L.A.-based troupe's newest studio pursuits have been just as ambitious. Dear Diary, My Teen Angst Has A Bodycount is an exercise in variety, from the unflinching power of "Featuring Some Of Your Favorite Words" - replete with thumping rhythms and angular riffs - to "Emily," a sadly gorgeous acoustic ode to long distance heartbreak. "We want you to feel like you're watching the wrong band but listening to the right music," guitarist Travis Richter explains. And his group's ability to juxtapose chaos and control is all the more impressive considering they have just one EP under their belts, 2003's acclaimed Aesthetic. Recorded for New York micro-indie Four Leaf Recordings in the months before Moore and bassist Jon Weisbert signed on, the disc earned From First To Last - who had already shared the stage with the likes of From Autumn To Ashes, Cave In, All American Rejects, Tsunami Bomb, Glasseater and Senses Fail - the attention of Epitaph. Resulting anthems like the thunderous "Secrets Don't Make Friends" and the blistering rage of "Kiss Me, I'm Contagious" artfully bookend the melodic, echo-doused "Populace In Two" with unexpected finesse. With the swansong "Ride The Wings Of Pestilence," FFTL bows out with an intensity few of its peers have managed to rival. Escalated by a full-on guitar bluster, the bedlam downshifts into a soaring, near-peaceful melody. Deconstructed to near-quiet, the quintet instantaneously, effortlessly revives its sonic mayhem before it leaves again. Oft-times reckless yet inexplicably refined, Dear Diary, My Teen Angst Has A Bodycount is a passionate, gut-wrenching debut disc. As you reach for the light switch and bear witness to shards of glass, bits of shrapnel and pieces of splintered wood, remember this is only the beginning. From First To Last has no plan for slowing down.

(not that that's a bad thing aesthetic is an amazing album) or is it a personal problem with the actual person? or are you upset because there's 14 year oldyes i'm dissing myself. but i'm almost 15 so it's all good. girls obsessed because sonny moore is soo hawt with a w because i'm a freshman and who has that choppy hair that that one really hawt again with the w scene kid has but he'll never pay attention to her because she's a preppy whore? okay. rant/interrogation over.	climacaphobic_katie
IM HERE THEY ROCK MY WORLD LOL!!!	kissmyguitar33
"are you one of those purists that only listen to aesthetic because phil reardon (yes i know his name)is "better"?" Please quit misusing the word "purist." And no.	losersalwayswin
"or are you upset because there's 14 year oldyes i'm dissing myself. but i'm almost 15 so it's all good. girls obsessed because sonny moore is soo hawt with a w because i'm a freshman and who has that choppy hair that that one really hawt again with the w scene kid has but he'll never pay attention to her because she's a preppy whore?" You're asking ME this? You're new, aren't you? And no. I hate Sonny Moore. He's an ugly fuck. And I get more pussy than him. I'm serious as hell, too.	losersalwayswin
Thats fantastic.	my_great_romance
"You're asking ME this? You're new, aren't you? And no. I hate Sonny Moore. He's an ugly fuck. And I get more pussy than him. I'm serious as hell, too." uh. yeah i'm new. but i'm really confused. i wasn't trying to be mean... i was just asking. i don't care what you think of Sonny Moore.	climacaphobic_kt
My friend showed me a picture of sunny moore and i class him officially cute... but they may be because of the slight fetish i have about boys with longish straightened hair :S	raindropsonroses
And i also like there song Emily, sorry i meant to add that bit in earlier but got side tracked with the thought of touching sunny moores hair.. (Im not weird, well maybe just a bit)	raindropsonroses
BOllOcks i meant sonny! Sonny! SONNY! sorry didnt mean to offend any of you by spelling it wrong twice... Im going now for good pwomise ♥	raindropsonroses
YOU KNOW IT!	HalifaxLuver

Sonny Moore is the hottest guy EVA!!!!	xXEmo_ChildXx
You all r just jelouse u dont look that hot in girls pants!	xXEmo_ChildXx
Hello.........? ne one there?	xXEmo_ChildXx
I'm a fan of FFTL! They are amazing...but Sonny Moore isn't the only hot one in the band...Matt Good is the hottest! and I have all of their autographs! yay me!	punk_freak_liz
None of them are hot.	losersalwayswin
"I have all of their autographs! yay me!" wow you brag more then me. shut up.	Ray_Toros_Afro
yeah well i have sonny's aim name, and uh huh.. but for all you chicks out there, lol he doesnt like girls who know his band, so you'll never have a chance with him =(	HalifaxLuver
"he doesnt like chicks who know his band" Does he know thats coming close to impossible? "..." (no, I dont want Sonny. I'm just saying...)	my_great_romance
"he doesnt like girls who know his band, so you'll never have a chance with him =(" You're a moron. Just pretend you've never heard of them. How dumb are you?	losersalwayswin
I highly doubt that if he liked a girl, he found out she liked From First to Last, he'd stop liking her. That's kind of stupid if he does... Oh well.	XratedRomance
I Dont think Sonny would go date someone who adores FFTL. Most people wouldnt be able pretend to not know who he is, you have people crying just because they saw him 3412341324 [exaggerated number] feet away [kind of pathetic]. There is a difference between fans and supporters. I dont think he would date a fan, but I do think he would date a supporter. [I am not Sonny Moore. I dont know this stuff for a fact.]	my_great_romance
Who cares? Sonny Moore is gross.	losersalwayswin
scuz ball.	my_great_romance
Faggot.	losersalwayswin

why sonny? why not anyone else in the band? what is it about sonny that makes you sooo attracted to him? I think he's great...but I dont think he's hot, he's kind of a scuzz ball, but i still love him.	my_great_romance
Sonny Moore is the Hawtest! but Matt is cute tooo...xx	raindropsonroses
okay, why is he hot?	my_great_romance
"Sonny Moore is the Hawtest! but Matt is cute tooo...xx" please shut up	Ray_Toros_Afro
P.S: its hot not HAWT.. sheesh i hate that i like them cuz of their music... not thier looks	City_of_evil519
"i like them cuz of their music... not thier looks" Finally. This is how it's supposed to be. So all you "omgz Sonny is hawt" people, really do need to shut the fuck up.	snowflakesback
Why? Having a discussion about the questionable hotness of Sonny Moore doesn't make us any less authentic than you. Sorry.	losersalwayswin
Please do NOT say "hawt" kfjlbqke;fgbv;iqebg;iqefbfgqefbgqfg I despise any words that have had the spelling changed like "gawd" and "rawk" and most definately "hawt" And by the way, just saying that "Sonny is so hawt!!!!" makes you seemed like an obsessed fan even if you aren't...	XratedRomance
"I despise any words that have had the spelling changed like "gawd" and "rawk" and most definately "hawt" " Then you're boring.	losersalwayswin
