The Early Days (2002-2004)
[edit]Since day one, Fallen From The Sky has written the music they wanted to write, and focused on the road they wanted to pave. The band came together in the city of Boca Raton during the spring of 2002. The punk rock outfit's original line up included singer Ryan Loughney, drummer Giancarlo Aservi, bassist Marcus Kora, and guitarists Eric Jazvac and Ky Morland, with a sound similar to the Movielife, Rise Against & Hot Water Music. After spreading their name around their home state of Florida through the usual rounds of touring, festival appearances, and even some local radio airplay, the guys released the five-song EP I Understand...But Goodbye in December 2003, marking the beginning of their touring carrier.
JMB Records (2004-2006)

Relentless touring continued as well as a limited-edition vinyl 7" for their song Victims released in February 2006 on Anchorless Records/JMB Records, same song that would also be featured on the soundtrack of the X-Box 360 game Prey released in july. By the fall, the FFTS had qualified into the Top Six of finalists for the MTV2 on-air contest Dew Circuit Breakout 2006, alongside bands like Halifax and I Am the Avalanche. Fallen From the Sky ultimately took second place (Halifax took top honors), an impressive accomplishment that pumped the band up as they toured and geared up for their next album.
