Dead Trees is the fifth studio album by post-hardcore band From First to Last, released April 23, 2015, via Sumerian Records.[6] It is the first and only release to feature vocalist Spencer Sotelo (singer of progressive metal band Periphery),[6] Taylor Larson as third guitarist, and new drummer, Ernie Slenkovich (original drummer Derek Bloom would return to the band in 2017). Returning to the group is guitarist/vocalist and founder Travis Richter, who had left the band in 2009. The band planned for the release to be an EP but due to the success of their Kickstarter campaign, the band had enough money to fund this LP.[7]
