Sample of biog from band's website (available HERE):

The Fall of Troy is everything you wish your band could be - younger, faster, louder, and well... better looking. These are the facts, but don't let it get you down. You're a snowflake, unique in your own way.

The band was raised in Mukilteo, Washington, a small town about 30 miles north of Seattle. There isn't much to do there when you're too young for the bars and too old for the playground. So you do what every other bored kid whose dad just happened to be a session musician with Allman Brothers and Eagles in the 70's - you start a band. The Fall of Troy was originally called Thirty Years War, but that didn't last long (get it?), and they decided to stick with their current name. The lineup has changed here or there, but the core group of three has and forever will stay the same...

The band's second studio album, Doppelgänger, was released through Equal Vision in 2005.
