A Smile For Weakness was a metallic screamo band from Ottawa, Ontario. The band seemed to have been a mainstay of the late 90's/early 00s Ontario screamo scene along with bands like Roads To Shiloh (pre-Van Johnson) and Vincent Black Shadow. I can't remember where I came across this information but ASFW also played shows with Saetia, which makes sense as they were featured on a Mountain C.I.A compilation. I am happy to say after at least 3 years of searching I have finally come across the CD demo and will be sharing it here for the first time. (Big thanks to Andrew Butko from Van Johnson for sending it over) I would reccommend this band to fans of the late 90's metalcore/screamo sound encompassing bands like Love Lost But Not Forgotten and Joshua Fit For Battle. Alex Edkins would later go on to play in METZ.
