Members: Lode Sileghem, Paul Van De Velde, Sven De Potter, Sam Louwyck, Sander Van den Broecke
Belgium (Ghent)-based band started in 2008.Their signature? Think The Fall and The Blues Explosion jumping off the roof of a collapsing building; in their descent they meet Slint and Unwound, and before hitting the concrete they snatch Tex Perkins (Beasts of Bourbon) away while sticking his head out of a window.
FALLING MAN seeks to explore the boundaries of musical decency. FALLING MAN snorts, chugs and fills his lungs with chunks of meticulously cut out mid-air madness. The outcome: streams of hot lava welling up, leaving dark scars on his back. Fearful tumbling in a storm of serrated guitars, whipping drums and threatening grunts…
Since February 20th, 2017, Sam Louwyck is no longer a member of the band due to his busy schedule which he could not combine with the band.
Sander Van den Broecke is the new singer.
