Bio:

FACEDOWN FTW was formed by David McClanahan,Roger Franklin, and Mikey Frank in 2000. Originally named Solitary Confinement,the trio started the writing process which started slowly due to the fact of Mikey moving from guitar to drums and David from drums to vocals. After a few short months the band added Howie Cole,who played in DEAD SERIOUS with Mikey, on guitar. Solitary Confinement continued writing and recorded a 5 song demo with each member playing bass since there wasn't one. After completion of the demo and a few shows under their belt,S.C. brought in Jason Teltow to pick up the bass duties.In late 2002 Howie left S.C. and they continued on as a 4 piece and with a new name, FACEDOWN. Howie returned in summer 2003 and Jason was let go due to personal reasons. Sean McReynolds picked up the slack on bass and after a short time was replaced Bea Shearman. The band felt they had a solid line up and recorded "A NEW BREED OF METAL" in 2004. In early 2005 Howie decided to part ways with FACEDOWN FTW for family reasons. Jon Alexander stepped in to fill Howies position for a short time,but musical differences soon proved to be too much. Josh Henderson arrives to complete the line up. With a line up the band feels is solid,FACEDOWN FTW is prepared to explode into the music world in 2006! Sic vic pacum para bellum.
