Gabriels Fallen are a hybrid of early American metal and punk rock from Southern California's South Bay. Following the lead of their name-sake, Gabriels Fallen has been sent to proclaim the Second Coming of rock, metal, and hardcore.



This four piece outfit hailing from the greater L.A. area is well on it's way to accomplishing this monumental task. Fueled by the genius of their many influences, (Pennywise, Metallica, Thrice, and The Misfits, just to name a few) Gabriels Fallen is cutting a path through the local L.A. club scene. Igniting big market venues like House of Blues, Knitting Factory, Key Club, and The Whiskey with unparalleled stage presence, and packing the house with its huge and frenzied fan base.



The band has already had the privilege of proving themselves a worthy opener for idols Strung Out, Ignite, Circle Jerks and Hell Within, and held its own with strange bed fellows Sugar Ray, Lit, Reel Big Fish, Violent Femmes, and Psychedelic Furs, on New Year Eve 2005. Gabriels Fallens much anticipated release "Hell Is For Heroes" is generating eager industry buzz, and the slated single "Man Above" has become a huge crowd favorite.



The band is young, passionate, ready, willing and able to live up to the hype. Ready to sound the note and give the call. Ready to carry the torch, and bring their brand of music to the masses.



Starting out in mid-2004 longtime friends Steve Huante, Victor Braden, and Dave Gray decided to start a new band that would be "noticably different" from any other group to come out of the South Bay. In August of the same year, they decided to bring in another guitarist, Chris Saunders, to help fill in with melodies while Steve worked on intensifying his blistering guitar solos.



Sharing their passion for both punk rock and early heavy metal, Gabriels Fallen, bored with mainstream and commercial rock, decided to return to the old metal style they loved as kids and fuse it with their take on modern punk rock.



Contrary to popular belief, Gabriels Fallen is not a religious or Christian band, the name does however have religious ties, the name claims that Gabriel, the right hand of God, sick and tired of his life of servitude, all the rules, restrictions, and limitations forced upon him, turned his back on heaven, forever falling to Earth.
