OVERCOME : The first band to officially join Facedown Records. Overcome was the cornerstone of success for Facedown in it's early years with their 5 song CDep The Life Of Death. Prior to that, Overcome released a split 12" with Clay and N.I.V. on Boot To Head Records, a full length on Tooth and Nail Records (Blessed Are The Persecuted), a 7" on Life Sentence Records, and another full length on Tooth & Nail (When Beauty Dies) but were dropped from the label for not touring enough. Overcome went on to record the album Immortal Until Their Work Is Done which was released in December of 1999. The band broke up in 2000 and did one final summer tour with Figure Four (their second tour ever). Overcome re-united for 2 re-union shows for the 2003 Facedown Fest.
After Overcome broke up, 3 of the members went on to form the death metal band Indwelling. Indwelling originally signed with the now defunct Clenched Fist Records, but after over a year of delays and problems with the label, they then signed with Facedown for the release of their debut and only album "And My Eye Shall Weep". Unfortunately they never played outside of Arizona and California before they disbanded.

this sucks. i have been trying since 1996 to get a hold of a demo tape, or anything recorded by ASH WEDNESDAY. one of the bass players from overcome was in this band. can anyone help me out?
Hey this is Nick Westby. I just want to thank all of the Overcome fans who supported us over the years. Just set up my myspace account a couple weeks ago and it blew my mind to see that to this day people still support and spread the word. Look for something good from myself and drummer Ethan Pajak next year.
Saw OVERCOME once a long time ago...that whole era was like the cornerstone of what we so enjoy today..much love and respect to all they did and do now.....PEACE Jeff
