There is an old saying that claims time brings change. No one would know this better than Portland's A Hope For Home, who have seen drastic change and growth since their inception in early 2006. What began as an emotional outlet for a group of friends during a season of loss has blossomed into a dedicated project that finds them on the road supporting their newest album, 2009's "The Everlasting Man," out January 20th on Strike First Records. A concept based off of G.K. Chesterton's novel of the same name, "The Everlasting Man" tells the story of mankind's fall and awaiting redemption.
It is their second album following 2007's "Here, The End", both of which were produced and mixed by bassist Dan McCall at his studio in Camas, WA. The 11 tracks weave through warm organic textures on "The Covenant," to meet electronic beats and synthesizers on "Absolution: Of Flight and Failure," to end up at their heaviest and darkest material yet, as in "Babylon: The Insatiable Thirst" and "Iniquity: An Offering."
Their music is not the only place they have experienced major change. Since releasing "Here, The End," A Hope For Home have found themselves on multiple tours supporting bands of many different styles and scenes, and will continue touring through 2009 to support "The Everlasting Man."
At the end of the day, A Hope For Home strives to bridge the gap between a professional production and the individual by connecting through passionate music and a fierce work ethic. This growth and change is seen evident at every performance, and hopefully, will inspire and touch every listener.
Please stop by and take a listen to the songs that we have up. We are going to be taking down a few of them soon. So let us know which tune is your favorite, maybe it will be one of the final songs we leave up!
I listened to both of your CDs last night, and I am digging them. Personally, I like the more post-rock sounding songs and instrumentals, but I still like everything else too!
You guys were great at Cornerstone! It was fun watching you guys play, and hanging out with you there. I hope (no pun intended) that you have splendid shows in the future, and a great rest of the summer. God bless.
