These Days Will Fade is an extended play by American alternative rock / post-hardcore band Moments in Grace. It is the band's second release, following Postcard Audio's eponymous extended play released in 2002, but the first to be released after changing name to Moments in Grace. The extended play was first released as a free download by American record label Salad Days Records on December 12, 2003.[1][2] It was later re-issued digitally and on compact disc by Atlantic Records and Salad Days Records on March 23, 2004. The release includes the song "Stratus", which was later pushed as a single to radio stations in June 2004, and its music video to music television channels in August 2004.[3][4]
The extended play was intended as a teaser for the band's forthcoming full-length album Moonlight Survived, its material having been written at the same time from mid-2002 to mid-2003, while the band was still named Postcard Audio. The band's line-up then included vocalist, guitarist, keyboardist and principal songwriter Jeremy Griffith, guitarist Justin Etheridge, bass guitarist Jake Brown and drummer Brandon Cook.[5][6][7] Cook was replaced by Timothy Kirkpatrick in May 2003 and a month later the band was renamed Moments in Grace. The band recorded sixteen songs over the span of three months, split between June–August 2003 and November 2003, with producer Brian McTernan at Salad Days in Beltsville, Maryland; four of which appeared on These Days Will Fade (with the rest appearing on Moonlight Survived).[8]
In promotion of the material released on These Days Will Fade and Moonlight Survived, Moments in Grace toured the United States and Canada several times between December 2003 and February 2005, accompanied by such bands My Chemical Romance, Avenged Sevenfold, Finger Eleven, Thrice, Silverstein, Funeral for a Friend, Alexisonfire, From First to Last, Smile Empty Soul, Bayside, Hot Water Music, Darkest Hour, Further Seems Forever, Poison the Well, A Thorn for Every Heart, Steriogram, Thornley, Strata, Brandtson, Planes Mistaken for Stars, The Jealous Sound, Beloved, Zolof The Rock & Roll Destroyer, Noise Ratchet, Rock 'n' Roll Soldiers, Vaux, Engine Down, Statistics, June, Madcap, The Kicks, Don't Look Down and Decahedron.
