Pittsburgh heavy-hitters and longtime Facedown Records metal act Those Who Fear are calling it a day. They’ll play one final show as part of this year’s Facedown Fest on Thursday, May 11, 2017, at the Glass House in Pomona, California.
The band were already scheduled to appear at the three-day Facedown Fest, the upcoming 20th anniversary installment of Facedown Records‘ annual concert event, performing alongside Sleeping Giant, Saving Grace and more.
However, as Facedown Records tweeted on Monday, the gig will now be Those Who Fear’s final show. The band followed that tweet with a Facebook update of their own. Those Who Fear — vocalist John Healy, guitarists Luke Healy and Caleb DeRusha, drummer Jacob Wilder and bassist Josh Ziegler —formed in 2005. They released their third album on Facedown, State Of Mind, last December. Previously, the veteran Christian metal label issued the band’s albums Death Sentence (2014) and Unholy Anger (2013).
