Falcon

Falcon is a heavy metal power trio that functions as a high-pedigree tribute to the proto-doom and hard rock sounds of the 1970s. Founded in 2002 by Perry Grayson (ex-Isen Torr), the band features a significant connection to metal history via bassist Greg Lindstrom, a founding member of the legendary Cirith Ungol.

This connection allows Falcon to serve as a custodian of metal history, as they frequently record and perform unreleased Cirith Ungol material from the 1970s. Their sound is characterized by a rejection of modern production standards, favoring analog warmth, raw vocal performances, and a rhythmic swing more common in classic rock than modern extreme metal. Critically, they are positioned as a 'musician's band,' deeply respected within the doom and traditional metal underground for their authenticity and refusal to modernize. Their discography, including the 2004 self-titled debut and 2008's 'Die Wontcha,' remains a cornerstone for the 70s heavy rock revival movement.
