Audio/Video: For All That Is Lost (commonly abbreviated as F.A.T.I.L.) never released a studio album, but they did write a number of original songs to go along with select live covers. A number of videos from their run circulate publically online, including on their own YouTube channel and the SMS' channel, among other sources. As well, an unmastered demo recording of their song "Northern Metal" can be heard on their Reverbnation page, plus two original guitar tracks from Brook. Here's For All That Is Lost live at The Rosie during their white mask era playing their song "Blood Law"!
Arguably the biggest metal band to come out of the early 2010s crop of CASS Cafe artists, For All That Is Lost left their mark in the region with a brutal and well composed slate of original material, and it's a shame they didn't last for more than 3 years! Tyler's brutal growling suited originals like "The Return of Dionysus", Brook & Ben were underrated players, and Kameron's drum skills presaged his well recieved future band work in Southern Ontario. Masks or no masks, F.A.T.I.L. helped put towns outside of the Soo on the local metal map, and hopefully the guys are staying active in music!

I hope you guys liked this month's Defunct Local Band Profile! This series will return on or around June 10th for another randomly selected band spotlight, this time focusing on inactive local pop punk project Anthems Vs. Oceans (formerly For July), so look for that then, and for more news and notes on the site tomorrow! Thanks everyone!
