There's No Sympathy for the Dead is the debut EP by American rock band Escape the Fate, released in 2006. It is the band's debut release after signing with Epitaph Records. Two songs from the EP titled "There's No Sympathy for the Dead" and "The Guillotine" would later be featured in the band's debut studio album Dying Is Your Latest Fashion.

Musical style

The EP's styles have been described as screamo, emo and melodic metalcore. Matt Whelihan of Punknews.org described the sound as "metal-influenced screamo" and compared the album's guitarwork to Avenged Sevenfold, while likening the album's hooks to the "arena-screamo" of Hawthorne Heights and Underoath. He also described Escape the Fate as "Atreyu with a Drive-Thru Records singer".
