Before Their Eyes is a post-hardcore band from Findlay, Ohio, formed in 2007. The band is currently signed to Rise Records. Founded originally by vocalist Nick Moore and Jim Nahorny of "The Drama Summer", the name of the band is taken from the New Testament verse Romans 3:18: "There is no fear of God before their eyes." They do not claim to be a "Christian band" they are more of "Christians in a band". A month after conception, Jim Nahorny left the band to finish his college degree and to pursue other interests. The song "Their Throats are Open Graves" is taken from Romans 3:13. Their second album, The Dawn of My Death, was released October 28, 2008. The album reached #10 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart
The band has played many tours, including: the Hot N' Heavy Tour alongside Drop Dead, Gorgeous, and He Is Legend, the Across The Nation Tour with A Skylit Drive and Four Letter Lie, the Black on Black Tour with Escape the Fate, the Scream the Prayer Tour in 2008 with Here I Come Falling, and Agraceful, and the One Moment Management Tour with Eyes Set to Kill, and LoveHateHero. Recently the band posted a blog, saying that they've finished tracking the album. The album's title was announced to be Untouchable and it was released on March 9, 2010.
