History[edit]
Early years (2004–2011)[edit]
The band was formed in early 2004 by the brothers Trevor and Matthew Wentworth, Tim and Matthew Valich, and Alex "Woody" Woodrow. They released their first EP, We've Been Holding Back. They were still in high school and even then they were attracting more young audiences in England.[citation needed]

On October 17, 2005, the group released their second EP, Building Cities from Scratch, but without the participation of Matthew or Tim. They were replaced by brothers Nick Perricone on guitar and Joey Perricone on drums.[citation needed]

After a few lineup changes, the group was complete in 2006 with Trevor Wentworth (vocals), Matt Wentworth (guitar and vocals), Colin Perry (guitar), Alex "Woody" Woodrow (bass guitar) and Tim Molloy (drums). In early 2007, the group signed with Epitaph Records. The day before they embarked on their first tour, Trevor was only 13 years old.[2]

In August 2007, after having spent some time on the local club scene, Our Last Night was signed to Epitaph Records, a label owned by Bad Religion's Brett Gurewitz,[3] and released their first album, The Ghosts Among Us, on March 4, 2008.[4] It peaked at No. 6 on Billboard's Top Heatseekers (Northeast) on March 22, 2008.[5] The group then toured the United States through late 2008, including a prolonged stop in Los Angeles to record new tracks.[6]

We Will All Evolve was produced by Andrew Wade who has worked with A Day to Remember, VersaEmerge, In Fear and Faith, and VEARA. The band toured with From First to Last, We Came as Romans, and A Bullet for a Pretty Boy on Asking Alexandria's headlining tour Welcome to the Circus starting in early May and ending in June. On March 23, the band changed their Myspace layout to reveal the album cover, and "Elephants", the first track on their upcoming album. On April 7, the band released "Across the Ocean" on their Myspace and Absolutepunk.net. On April 23, they released the music video for "Elephants" on Myspace and different sites. On April 30, they had their official CD release show in support of We Will All Evolve at the Adams Memorial Opera House in Derry, New Hampshire.

On June 7, 2011 the band uploaded an acoustic version of "Across the Ocean" on their YouTube channel. This marked the first time frontman Trevor provided clean vocals instead of his usual unclean vocals on one of the band's tracks. He has provided clean vocals on every original song and cover the band has released ever since, with the exception of "Ivory Tower". On August 27, 2011 the band uploaded a 30-second clip of a new song they have been working on to their Facebook page.

Musical style[edit]
The band's sound has been described as a mixture of post-hardcore and alternative rock with some elements of metalcore.[19] The early releases featured fewer clean vocal parts while the contemporary material is more melodic with the role of unclean vocals noticeably reduced. Matt Wentworth occasionally plays a downtuned seven-string guitar that helps bring some elements of djent to the overall sound.[citation needed]

In case y'all are looking for a nice pee break on this tour, don't forget the vocalist from Our Last Night actually asked on twitter if it was ok for him to use the n-word.

To make matters worse he keeps denying this as if alt press didn't do a whole article about it

To make it EVEN worse the song in question is the one cover out of the dozens they've done that they decide to play live.

To be fair they suck

HelloThisIsDog · Mar 12, 2019

Bands debate using racial vernacular when covering other artists - Alternative Press

Link for you curious folks.

tyramail · Mar 12, 2019

Do you know if they actually use the n-word when covering the song?

They do not but the fact that the dude had to even ask says enough about them. Not that they were particularly good anyway.

I can't speak for their live shows but according to his tweet in the AltPress article Trevor doesn't say it.

Oh definitely haha, I was just wondering if he got the answer wrong.

Jusscali · Mar 12, 2019

But he says like 490 billion other derogatory things when covering terribly inappropriate hip hop songs so whatevs. Love when the misoginists go to moral war against the racists. Everyone wins!

tyramail · Mar 12, 2019

Honestly I don’t pay any attention to their covers so I’m pretty unaware but also not surprised.

Blink182Bouncer · Mar 12, 2019

I just see One Last Night as like the Metalcore version of The Chainsmokers in my mind.

ALT/MSC/FAN · Mar 12, 2019

This would have been so much easier if they just covered Who Let the Dogs Out.

Jusscali · Mar 12, 2019

Would have been easier if they weren't even a band.

I mean based off this thread alone, the things that were observed, witnessed, and unfortunately heard (a full hour in fact!) expedited the process lol

That song was destined to be a metalcore song.

It's not hate, we're just not about supporting a white dude who doesn't understand why he can't say the N word. You seem like an As I Lay Dying fan.

ALT/MSC/FAN · Mar 12, 2019

Did I mention that Who Let the Dogs Out was covered with the ACTUAL Baha Men? Because it was, and it's spectacular.
