About This Release
As a wise band once pointed out, what happens on the road always comes home. Sure, you can read into the darker side of that sentiment, but if you're talking about As I Lay Dying, the never-ending trail of unfamiliar cities, stages, and faces has cut a path toward something brighter.

Reviews
''A Long March: The First Recordings'' is the first compilation album by American metalcore band As I Lay Dying. The album was released on May 16, 2006 through Metal Blade Records. It features their first album ''Beneath the Encasing of Ashes'' (2001), as well as re-recorded and original versions of the songs featured on their split album with American Tragedy.
The album was released because the band - as they said - "were a bit tired of seeing ''Beneath the Encasing of Ashes'' being sold for unreasonable prices ($90+ on eBay)", so they decided to re-release all of their early recordings in one package. - Wikipedia
