Senses Fail consisted of vocalist Buddy Nielsen, guitarists Dave Miller and Garret Zablocki, bassist Mike Glita, and drummer Dan Trapp. Forming in 2002, SF's slick amalgam of posthardcore chuggery and emo heartbreak was in solidly line with the sound of other New Jersey groups like Saves the Day. Senses Fail quickly issued a debut EP through Boston indie ECA, and began to play out frequently while spreading the word with a thriving Internet presence. DriveThru records took notice, and signed the group in late 2002. A revamped version of the From the Depths of Dreams EP appeared in April 2003; it featured better mixing, one new song, and an acoustic version of "Ground Folds". A tour with the Used wrapped up the year in a successful fashion.
