"Another Hero Lost" is the second single from the album Threads of Life by the thrash metal band Shadows Fall.
Unlike most other Shadows Fall songs, it is a soft ballad.
It was written about singer Brian Fair's cousin, who died in the U.S. war in Iraq.
[1] During concerts the band dedicates the song to soldiers fighting, and ones who have died in Iraq.
The song peaked at 40 in the Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks chart.
