From First to Last is the third album by Post-Hardcore band From First to Last, released on May 6, 2008 through Suretone and Interscope Records. "Two as One" is the album's first single, which hit the radio on March 17.[1] This is the first full-length album by the band without Sonny Moore (Skrillex) as lead vocalist; the band's guitarist, Matt Good, takes over from him. In contrast to the band's previous album Heroine, the album features a more accessible, alternative rock sound.[2]

From First To Last received mixed reviews from critics, and its change in sound alienated the band's fanbase. Subsequently, despite being given a high profile marketing campaign by Suretone,[3] the album underperformed commercially, and only reached number 81 on the Billboard 200; as a result, the band split from the label the following year.[4]
