| Formed back in the early 80's, Danish hard rock band FATE made themselves quite a name on the metal/rock scene with their 4 superb albums. Now it's time for the band to return ... stronger than ever! The hard rock legend known as FATE came to life in 1984 when guitarist Hank Sherman left Mercyful Fate. Hank hooked up with fellow Copenhagen musicians bassplayer Pete Steiner (a.k.a. Peter Steincke) and drummer Bob Lance (a.k.a. Bjarne Holm). Together they formed Fate with singer and entertainer Jeff "Lox" Limbo. Years went by, and FATE was still a name that reminded people of how great classic hard rock could actually be. It was MTM MUSIC who managed to get the rights for the re-issues of "A Matter Of Attitude" and "Scratch N Sniff" to build up a possible comeback. The guys got the offer to play the prestigious Deep Impact Festival in Germany in 2004, and of course this was too good an offer to turn down. So Peter, Per, Søren and temporary drummer Rasmus Duedahl took the trip down there, and had really good response from fans and media. Now, ignited by the overwhelming response to the re-releases, FATE has decided to give it another shot, and with the line-up of Peter, Per, Søren and new drummer Mikael Kvist (from Swedish prog-metal band Elsesphere) FATE is back in action. In the winter of 2005/2006 the band finished recording their forthcoming album, "V", with producer Tommy Hansen (who did "Scratch N Sniff" back in 1990, as well as having produced bands like Helloween, Pretty Maids, TNT and many more), 2006 looks to become the year of the FATE-boys. They are looking forward to an April 2006 release of "V", followed by some gigs in and out of Denmark. "V" is a masterpiece within the classic hard rock style, that FATE themselves helped to create 20 ago. | |
