The Fall on Deaf Ears

The Fall on Deaf Ears

The Fall on Deaf Ears was a musical group from El Paso most notable for featuring Cedric Bixler Zavala of At the Drive-In and The Mars Volta, who played drums, Clint Newsom of Rhythm of Black Lines and The Hades Kick on guitar. The Fall on Deaf Ears played in the post-hardcore style typical of bands such as The Nation of Ulysses and Circus Lupus. They played live shows with bands such as Propagandhi, Egon and Select Your Fighter. The act only recorded a handful of songs before bassist Laura Beard and guitarist Sarah Reiser were killed in a car wreck in 1997. They were both 17 years old. Cedric Bixler-Zavala would later write the song "Napoleon Solo" as singer/lyricist with At The Drive-in about the tragedy.In the 5 recorded tracks, samples of Miles Davis' "Bitches Brew" can be heard.

Cedric Bixler moved on to At the Drive-In from The Fall on Deaf Ears and later to The Mars Volta. http://www.myspace.com/thefallondeafears
