Falling in Reverse

{{Further|Ronnie Radke|Escape the Fate}}In 2006, lead singer Ronnie Radke was involved in an altercation in Las Vegas that resulted in a friend fatally shooting 18-year-old Michael Cook in self-defense. While Radke did not shoot Cook, he was indicted on charges relating to owning brass knuckles that he took to the altercation. These charges, combined with Radke's past troubles with narcotics and rehab, led to five years probation. After he failed to report to his probation officer, he was arrested in June 2008, where his probation was revoked and he was mandated to serve his original sentence of two years in prison.{{cite web|url=http://chemical-magazine.com/2011/06/13/former-escape-the-fate-vocalist-ronnie-radke-returns-with-new-band-falling-in-reverse/|publisher=Chemical Magazine|author=Cassie Crue|title=Former Escape The Fate Vocalist Ronnie Radke Returns With New Band 'Falling in Reverse'|date=June 13, 2011|access-date=July 8, 2011|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120326014404/http://chemical-magazine.com/2011/06/13/former-escape-the-fate-vocalist-ronnie-radke-returns-with-new-band-falling-in-reverse/|archive-date=March 26, 2012|url-status=dead|df=mdy-all}}{{cite web|url=http://www.metal.com/news/article/Ronnie+Radke+Returns+To+The+World+of+Music|publisher=Metal|author=Andy Re.|title=Ronnie Radke Returns to the World of Music|date=June 11, 2011|access-date=July 3, 2011|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110701150038/http://www.metal.com/news/article/Ronnie+Radke+Returns+To+The+World+of+Music|archive-date=July 1, 2011|url-status=dead|df=mdy-all}} At the time, Radke was the lead singer of post-hardcore band Escape the Fate, which, in 2006, released its debut album, Dying Is Your Latest Fashion.{{cite web|first=Corey|last=Apar|url=https://www.allmusic.com/album/dying-is-your-latest-fashion-mw0000444242|title=Escape the Fate Dying Is Your Latest Fashion]|website=AllMusic|access-date=January 13, 2022}} Following Radke's incarceration, he was ejected from the band and replaced by former Blessthefall lead singer Craig Mabbitt.{{cite web|url=http://news.mibba.com/Music/514/Escape-The-Fate-Singer-Announced |publisher=Mibba News |author=pulmonary archery |title=Escape The Fate Singer Announced |date=February 4, 2008 |access-date=July 3, 2011 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090227035333/http://news.mibba.com/Music/514/Escape-The-Fate-Singer-Announced |archive-date=February 27, 2009 |df=mdy }} Radke was released on December 12, 2010.{{cite web|first=Steph|last=Castor|url=https://www.guitarworld.com/features/escape-fate-biography|title=Escape the Fate Biography|website=Guitar World|date=August 16, 2011|access-date=January 13, 2022}}

Radke discussed his relationship with Escape the Fate members since his departure from the band, stating that they have tried to reconcile with Radke but he was uninterested in getting back on friendly terms with them claiming that they kicked him out and misinformed their fans about him. Radke stated in an interview,

"They make a whole album called This War Is Ours, and then they try to say, 'We didn't name that album after you, dude.' Which in fact, they did. I could be wrong; they could be talking about the war on terrorism or something. I don't know. But I just have a feeling that the record name was about me. They talk a lot of shit. It is always about forgive and forget, but there's some things that I would like to say. So I did.

During his time in prison, Radke formed a new band called From Behind These Walls. He officially began creating media with the band upon his release, but was later forced to change its name to Falling in Reverse due to copyright.{{Cite web |date=2023-11-25 |title=The Arena Rock Band That Was Formed From Prison |url=https://www.wearethepit.com/2023/11/the-arena-rock-band-that-was-formed-from-prison/ |access-date=2024-01-31 |website=The Pit |language=en-US}} In 2009, with Radke still in prison, he was able to launch a demo of his band, due to contacts with several musicians he had.

In January 2010, the band began recording for the first time. The group announced on December 20 that it would go to Orlando, Florida to record a full-length debut album over a period of two months with a tentative release date of the first quarter of 2011.

I would dissect my old album and read all the fan letters and the reasons why they loved my band and why they listened to it. And I wrote about that, but in different ways. I don't know why these kids love the tragedies that I write about. I guess they can relate to it."

To promote the album, the band announced the dates for its first live performances, which took place at the end of July following the album's release at certain locations in California, with one date scheduled in Texas on September 24, 2011.

"The last record was so vengeful and bitter and spiteful – so everyone is wondering what I'm gonna sing about next. And I'm just not quite ready to let people know. I'm sorry.

Radke commented that "in the same songs it sounds like Norma Jean or Underoath with Katy Perry choruses."{{cite web|first=Annie|last=Zaleski|url=http://www.lasvegasweekly.com/news/2011/may/05/rocker-ronnie-radke-out-prison-and-ready-make-his-/|title=Rocker Ronnie Radke is out of prison and ready to make his musical mark again|work=Las Vegas Weekly|date=May 5, 2011|access-date=August 5, 2011}} According to Radke some of the band's lyrical tones are, "arrogant, [it's something] like rappers do mostly." This is because Radke has cited Eminem, Beastie Boys and Lordz of Brooklyn as two of his major influences,{{cite web|url=http://www.altpress.com/features/entry/exclusive_ronnie_radke_interview_falling_in_reverse_drug_me_you|title=Exclusive: Ronnie Radke discusses inspirations behind Falling in Reverse's "The Drug in Me Is You"|work=Alternative Press|date=July 15, 2011|access-date=February 3, 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130114183726/http://www.altpress.com/magazine/issue/294_falling_in_reverse|archive-date=January 14, 2013|url-status=dead}} so much so that he even included a beat made by Eminem and Dr. Dre during a breakdown on the track "Sink or Swim".

The lyrical content of the band's music is inspired mainly by vocalist Radke's personal experiences, which include his mother, the corruption of Las Vegas, and his incarceration/release from prison due to multiple run-ins with the law involving narcotics and battery charges related to the death of Michael Cook. No songs by the band to date concern love because Radke stated that, "...I'm not going to lie ... and try to write songs on how much I love somebody. I do have love, but there will be a lot of songs about just what I've been through."{{cite web|first=Annie|last=Zaleski|url=http://www.altpress.com/features/entry/exclusive_ex-escape_the_fate_vocalist_ronnie_radke_breaks_his_silence_after/|title=Exclusive: Ex-Escape The Fate vocalist Ronnie Radke breaks his silence after prison release|work=Alternative Press|date=December 22, 2010|access-date=August 20, 2011|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110815193637/http://www.altpress.com/features/entry/exclusive_ex-escape_the_fate_vocalist_ronnie_radke_breaks_his_silence_after/|archive-date=August 15, 2011|url-status=dead}} Several songs focused on his departure from Escape the Fate after the group kicked him out and replaced him with former Blessthefall singer Craig Mabbitt, with songs by the band that directly attacked both Mabbitt and Escape the Fate's bassist Max Green.
