FAILURE - Soundwave 2016 GreetingFAILURE JOIN THE SOUNDWAVE LINE UP! There are some bands out there that no matter how great their music is, they never quite get the recognition they deserve and ultimately fade into obscurity. Probably the most extreme example of this is a once little known alternative rock band from Los Angeles called FAILURE. You probably have heard their name in the past 2 years more than you ever did before, and you are probably wondering what all the fuss is about. Read more about the band via their artist page http://www.soundwavefestival.com/lineup/failure Over the years, FAILURE has become known as a “band’s band” whose songs have been covered by such diverse artists as A Perfect Circle and Paramore. Tool/A Perfect Circle singer Maynard James Keenan said, “Failure has been a huge inspiration to me. They say amateurs borrow and professionals steal. Well over the years this pro has robbed those poor saps blind"
