"I can see your threat......ride by me , PEOPLE not profit !"
The news that shook the world
Totally shit news! When All Else Fails have split up! Gutted!
It seems that it has been on the cards for a while and after the guys in the band had a long discussions they decided to call it a day, Gav is going to be settling down with his girlfriend, moving away and concentrating on with his career more
And just doesn't feel he can commit to the band anymore, the other guys didn't want to carry on without him or replace him so they just split up! I just want to say a truely huge thanks to Dan, Gav and Tim for all the many good times, great songs, great shows and great fun they shared with us and thanks for letting us put out their records on Cat N Cakey, It was an honor to be involved with such an amazing band/group of people! And good luck with everything for the future!

Band Biography
Hailing form hampshire W.A.E.F. was a band that had had its highs and lows, up's and down's, and even name changes throughout there history, but do you expect when the band had been together for 8 YEARS!
Discography! - The Releases


Self Titled Demo
This was the First thing the guys put out . a self funded 8 track demo.
I would not be suprised that after this is released someone will sign W.A.E.F, this demo shows the potential of one the most promising bands to hit the uk scene in recent years, This really is without a doubt,one of the best demos that I have ever had the pleasure of reciving , 8 Fast, agressive tracks and some of the best lyrics you will ever hear. As soon as the opening track 'Race against time' starts W.A.E.F. let you know what your in for! Fast punk riffs with insane drumming,followed up with agrressive growly rough vocals,growling politicaly fuled lyrics that are striaght to the ponit and in your face.
There is one problem with this demo, on some of the tracks it sounds as if the drummer cant keep the pace , but this is only on a couple of the tracks.On a whole this is a well recorded decently produced self funded demo, and put's W.A.E.F.in a excellent positon for the futuer , an Awesome band and Deffinatly a band to watch out for .
For fans of :
Jets vs Sharks , Winter In June, Strike Anywhere,Propaghandi,Anti-flag.
Best trcak : Track 6 - Unfortunatly i have no idead what the songs called :(

When All Else Fails Split E.P With Chilerton
The Chillerton Split
There is only the Winter in june/ steel rules die split E.P that rivals this for the best split by uk bands in recent years. This is an amazing CD Featuring Two of the best uk Bands around ,W.A.E.F and Chillerton. Chillerton are a more mellow sound and Start it all off with five energetic , politacly fueld emotinaly packed tracks. Defiantly a band to watch out for.......
W.A.E.F. goes down a treat after , the more mellodic , yet chanty songs that Chillerton provide really wetting you whistle for somthing abit more heavy.And thats exactly what W.A.E.F. give you,5 fast aggressive political in your face tracks
. As soon as the drums kick on there first track 'stands for reason' you can tell this is going to be faster and more hardcore influnced, and to be honest when you have listened to it for a while you'll be longing for chillerton to hurry up and finnish !!. Crazy drumming and Gav's growly voice are one of the main things you notice frst with this band , for me this coungered up thoughts of stike anywhere with in your face lyrics of bands like goodriddance and Anti-Flag. This is a pruely stuuning split by two of the best bands in the uk . A must have for fans of jets vs sharks, fig4.0, army of flying robots, steel rules die

When All Else Fails s/w Through these eyes
'Good Lookin South'
This was W.A.E.F Second release on Cat'n'cakey Records,
5 tracks of fast,agressive political fuled southcoast hardcore at it's best,
riding on the sucsess of the first split they did with chilerton it was obvious this wasnt
a band that put there heart into the music and lyrics,this time they start off the split , a sign of encouragment by the label and a show of confidance from the band.The best thing about the band on this split is the way they havnt changed or altered there style , once again its five stuningly fast aggressive politicaly charged songs. the track'People not profit' is the standout track on this split, and leaves you waiting for them to bring out a there own MCD of album unfortunatly there long await
MCD , wich was to be there 3rd release on cat'n'cakey never came about, they had the songs
down , but due to the personal reasons as mentioned above, they never got out. An Amazing
band ,
with amazings songs When all else Fails R.I.P..a full review in issue #1 of F.W.F
