The band started as a side project by vocalist Philip Labonte, who had previously been with Shadows Fall before focusing on this new endeavor. The original lineup included Chris Bartlett and Dan Egan alongside Labonte. Their early music style contained elements of melodic death metal, differing from their later melodic metalcore sound.

Release of Debut Album 'Behind Silence and Solitude'
In 2002, All That Remains released their debut album 'Behind Silence and Solitude' through Prosthetic Records on March 26. The album showcased a blend of melodic death metal which marked the band's initial musical direction. This was the only album to feature original members Chris Bartlett and Dan Egan.

The band released their second studio album, 'This Darkened Heart,' on March 23, 2004, also through Prosthetic Records. Produced by Adam Dutkiewicz of Killswitch Engage, the album featured improved production and began to showcase the band's evolving melodic metalcore style. This album marked the introduction of current guitarist Mike Martin. Singles like 'This Darkened Heart' and 'Tattered on My Sleeve' received music videos, expanding the band's visibility.

The band also participated in Ozzfest 2006, broadening their exposure to metal audiences nationwide.

Story of All That Remains
All That Remains, the Springfield, Massachusetts metal titans, emerged in 1998, forging a career built on nine studio albums, a live CD/DVD, and over a million records sold worldwide. While vocalist Philip Labonte remains the sole original member, the band enjoyed a remarkably stable lineup from 2008's Overcome through 2015's The Order of Things, spanning four albums. This era ended with bassist Jeanne Sagan's departure in September 2015, replaced by Aaron Patrick. Tragedy struck in February 2019 with the death of original lead guitarist Oli Herbert, resulting in Jason Richardson joining the ranks. Further lineup shifts saw Patrick's exit in 2021 to focus on Bury Your Dead, with Matt Deis taking over bass duties in 2022. Labonte's journey to All That Remains began after his departure from Shadows Fall (appearing on their seminal Somber Eyes to the Sky), where "musical differences" led him to fully commit to his side project, releasing their debut album, Behind Silence and Solitude, in 2002 via Prosthetic Records.
