Great stories take great storytellers. And if you’ve been to an Ascending From Ashes show, you might feel like you’ve heard a few great ones. AFA, a rock/metal quartet from New Jersey, bring tales of warfare and passion to life with an adept mix of lush vocal harmony and guitar shred-wizardry. By fusing strong songwriting sensibility with their energetic 
metal tact, Ascending From Ashes broadcast an accessible array of musical journeys.

The streets are burning for retribution. They need reminders - suggestions that the fiery passions of their souls are still shared by a sleeping majority. The dark horses of the world still cling to their headphones, walking the streets and bellowing the melodies of unforgotten champions; melodies not much different than those of New Jersey's Ascending From Ashes. By combining Morello-esque riffing with the anthemic tendencies of Imagine Dragons, AFA achieve the aggressive essence of the suburban underdog, ascending to the pinnacle of defiance.

The band was born in the garages of Bergen County, from which they emerged on the VFW scene as “Make It Fit", with a self-released EP titled A War Unarmed, produced by Matt Mesiano of Cannon Found Soundations. In the wake of a positive local reception, the band dissected itself, changed its line-up, and linked up with New York based manager, producer, and label owner Nick Vlachos, returning as Ascending From Ashes.
