From Ashes Rise

Formed:: We're not sure when - tell us? (it's easy)
Snapshot:: A Group with 5 releases. No members known.

From Ashes Rise is an American hardcore punk band, formed in Nashville, Tennessee in the mid-'90s. They helped define the gloom-heavy thrash sound attributed to groups like His Hero is Gone and Tragedy. Along with Tragedy, the group then relocated to Portland, Oregon.

Representative of a staunchly underground breed of aggressive, basement punk, the band signed with Jade Tree. Drawing on obscure hardcore bands from Scandinavia and Japan, as well as Discharge's venerated "D-beat," From Ashes Rise helped bring an aggressive sound to Jade Tree. The band split up in Fall 2005 after doing a tour with the legendary UK band, the Subhumans. The statement issued by their record label Jade Tree Records on November 3, 2005:

On October 12, 2009 a reunion show at the Satyricon in Portland, OR for February 21, 2010 was announced via the band's MySpace blog.
