Where Love & Violence were sometimes compared to '80s electro groups such as OMD, Depeche Mode and New Order, FALLen focused more intently on the darker, industrial undercurrents of their previous incarnation as Love and Violence; hence the name-change to emphasise the new direction. The band clearly and purposefully aligned themselves alongside similar artists including industrial-noise 'supergroup' [[Department of Corrections]], dark-ambient/post-industrial duo [[Usine]], gothic rockers [[Disjecta Membra]] and blackmetallers [[Lure]] and were very active in this circuit until about 1997.<br><br> | Where Love & Violence were sometimes compared to '80s electro groups such as OMD, Depeche Mode and New Order, FALLen focused more intently on the darker, industrial undercurrents of their previous incarnation as Love and Violence; hence the name-change to emphasise the new direction.

| − | Unfortunately this did not prove to be a popular move and FALLen failed to achieve the recognition Love and Violence had once seemed destined for, with their comparatively danceable electronic pop sensibilities. FALLen had one ''untitled'' track released on the 1997 [[Green Eggs and Hamilton]] compilation and gradually became inactive. Scott Newth became heavily involved with [[Contact 89FM|Contact]] and Andrew Newth focused on his solo project [[Southern Tribe]]. The brothers also co-founded the completely different project [[Rumpus Room]] in 1997. Over the years Rumpus Room has also featured [[Scott Brodie]] of Love and Violence & [[Chris Paki]] from FALLen (among others). | + | Unfortunately this did not prove to be a popular move and FALLen failed to achieve the recognition Love and Violence had once seemed destined for, with their comparatively danceable electronic pop sensibilities.
