Second Coming (Second Coming album)
Second Coming is the eponymous second studio album by the American rock band Second Coming. It was originally released independently with eight tracks through their own label, Timestyle, and later reissued and re-released with three additional tracks - "Tonight [The Goodnight King]", "The War", and "Unknown Rider" - on September 22, 1998, through Capitol Records. It is the first Second Coming album to feature vocalist Travis Bracht, who became their permanent singer until the band broke up in 2008, and the only one to feature guitarist Dudley Taft. Background and recording Before joining drummer James Bergstrom and bassist Johnny Bacolas, the only two band members on this album who were also involved with its predecessor L.O.V.Evil, guitarist Dudley Taft enjoyed moderate success with the band Sweet Water; he appeared on their first two albums Ter and Sweet Water. Meanwhile, vocalist Travis Bracht sang in a band called Peace and Silence, which recorded and released one album called Fathom That. To raise funds for this album, Second Coming moonlighted as a cover band called FTA, an acronym for "Funding the Album". Initially, they independently recorded an eight-track album that would later be reissued by Capitol Records with three additional tracks. Bacolas
