About All Shadows Fade
ALL SHADOWS FADE is the progressive metal/rock project from multi-instrumentalist/vocalist/song-writer Ryan "Draco" Mark. When time isn't consumed by teaching music, working as a free-lance classical/jazz composer, or various live and session work; ASF is given life! Taking on this type of project alone is no easy task; but when it's a labor of love, it's all worthwhile. (Or maybe a sign of control-freak issues?)


After playing on stage and in studios since the age of 18, the time came to do a recording project which can best be described as a synthesis of progressive rock and modern hard rock/melodic metal; with elements of jazz, and ambient influences. Lyrically, the songs often deal with the battles against personal demons, finding hope/faith, and beyond.

All Shadows Fade's full-length debut album, 'Epiphany', should be ready for summer '09, with work already underway for the follow-up release, 'Conspiracy'. Stay tuned for various updates as well as upcoming performances.

What a couple of months it has been so far this year! 2009 kicked off with a crazy driver doing a hit-and-run job on the front of my house. Thankfully, we weren't hurt, but have about $6K in damage. We're still waiting on the insurance check, and ... (login or sign up to read more)
