Upcoming shows / new material

Having had a blast at our shows so far this year, including last night in Manchester with labelmates Nightvision & our great friends Afterdown, we hit Nightvision's territory tonight in Boston, Lincolnshire (Axe & Cleaver) before returning North to Oldham, Lancashire (Whittles) tomorrow, again with Nightvision & also Afterdown.

Then on the 18th we go to Swindon (The 12 Bar) with Nightvision & locals The Love Rockets opening up, before we make our way across the channel to Belgium to play Wizzfest with our hosts Wizzard on the 20th. Nightvision play Wizzfest also, plus several other bands from UK & Europe. That Belgian beer is getting closer & closer!

We then have 3 weeks break to concentrate on further writing & rehearsing the new material ready for recording.

Meantime, we of course play Hammerfest II, appearing at one o'clock lunchtime on 2nd stage for a 40 minute set on the Saturday. The new song "I See Red" will again feature. So metalheads make sure you shake off those hangovers from Friday night & get up/down to see us on this one!

Later in March we spread our wings across the country again with shows in Newcastle (Trillians, 26th), Grimsby (Yardbirds Club, 27th) & London (Purple Turtle, Camden, 30th). Guest bands for these shows yet to be confirmed.

Huge thanks to all who've turned up in great numbers for the shows so far.

See ya out there!

A new song "I See Red" was played for the first time at the shows at Macclesfield, Dudley & Manchester. Recording for a new album begins in April & a release is planned for September which will be the band's 3rd album on label Rocksector Records.

February : mini-tour.

Big thanks to everyone at the 2 shows so far, it's been amazing to get back on the road after the past few weeks' break. We were "hungry" to get back playing again & think it showed! ....

.... last Friday at the Nag's Head, Macclesfield where we had our best ever gig at that venue, packed to the rafters & a cracking atmosphere. Horns-up especially to the stamina of the front row headbangers \m/ . Equal thanks to everyone at the Blaze Bayley gig at JB's, Dudley on Saturday. Fantastic to be invited to help set Blaze & their tour support Sinocence on their way with the first date of their "Promise & Terror" UK tour. Fantastic!

Powerplay review of Hellfire Festival


From the latest Powerplay magazine (issue 117, Feb 2010) ....

"..Fury UK were the first real discovery of the festival. They had a remarkably full sound for a three piece, even during the explosive extended soloing.. I strongly suspect their take on classic rock will gain them plenty of admirers over the coming months. One to keep an eye on I'd say" (Chris Van Souwe)
