Without an Altar (sometimes referred to as WaA) is a screamo/hardcore band from Butler, PA. WaA was formed on May 25, 2008 by Matt 'Fen' Marshall and Aaron 'Hank' Pepe as an acoustic duo by the name of Silent Dreams on Candid Camera. After writing and releasing a few self-produced albums, and playing bars throughout the city, they decided to extend their sound and pursue a career in music. Soon after re-writing all their material and releasing one more album, they found a drummer in Jake Dunbar, a classmate of Fen's back in high school. A few months later, armed with a arsenal of tracks that sounded faster, cleaner, and heavier than ever before, the band decided to change their name for their feature on '11th Hour Confession' produced by Quickstar Productions. Given a list of possible names the trio found Without an Altar the best expression of their lyrical content and wild transitions from a calm feel to an aggressive explosion of energy, both within the songs themselves and in their live experience.
