Background
editAfter Aaron Fink, Mark Kleplaski and Tony Kruszka left the band, Lifer continued into 2002, with Derek Spencer and Ian Wiseman handling guitar and bass duties. This lineup recorded an independent EP that year titled IV. Nick Coyle subsequently decided to rename Lifer under the moniker myDownfall, as the recent material the new lineup had been writing featured more of a melodic rock sound. The sound of this EP has been described as more raw compared to the previous material of the band,[citation needed] the EP being critically acclaimed for its originality. myDownfall would eventually split in 2003.
