Embrace the End were a metalcore band from Sacramento, California, formed in 1999. Originally consisting of only four members, the band went through several line-up changes, at one point having as many as six members, including two vocalists. However, shortly after the departure of vocalist Pat Piccolo following the release of their major label debut in 2005, they decided to continue with only Jesse Alford on vocals. Throughout their history, they featured members of the bands First Blood (band), First Blood, Killing the Dream, and Alcatraz. After a series of small independent releases with various line-ups, ''Counting Hallways to the Left'' was released on CD in summer 2005 on Abacus Records. Steady touring for band occurred in the years that followed across the United States, through the release of their second and final album ''Ley Lines (album), Ley Lines'' in 2008. The band has since been on indefinite hiatus, engaging in various independent musical projects.
