Left to Vanish is an American extreme metal band formed in 2002 from Philadelphia, PA. With a number of member changes at their initial start, Sean Salm (age 15 in 2001) is considered to be the main contributor behind LTV's work. They released two albums in a 7-year span. Buried Alive in A Grave of Your Own Mistakes in 2005 on End All Music and Versus the Throne in July 2008 on Lifeforce Records.[1] The band disbursed in 2009 right after setting plans to enter the studio to record their 3rd full length album, due to conflicts between members.

LTV remained inactive until December 2016, where they made an appearance on a bill at the Theatre of the Living Arts with The Acacia Strain in Philadelphia. Quickly after reuniting, LTV produced a single "The Recurrence Pattern". Their 3rd album Dethroned with new frontman Bob Meadows (former member of A Life Once Lost) is set to release in December 2017.
