Fractures In the Facade of Your Porcelain Beauty is Atreyu's second EP, which was originally released on November 20, 2001, then released again on January 29, 2002, under the independent label Tribunal Records. The EP features early versions of the songs "Living Each Day Like You're Already Dead," "Someone's Standing on My Chest" and "Tulips are Better," which were re-worked and featured on the band's next release, Suicide Notes and Butterfly Kisses. The EP was released before the band's huge success following their debut album and original pressings are getting increasingly hard to find. Vocalist Alex Varkatzas has a deeper approach to his screams on this album compared to Suicide Notes and Butterfly Kisses. The album is the first Atreyu release to feature Travis Miguel on rhythm guitar, as opposed to the Visions EP which only featured founding guitarist, Dan Jacobs.
