FUME
Its about aggression, its about conviction, its about extremes These three things cannot be overlooked or simply ignored, it was these three things we used as a basis to create fume five years ago.
Our aim was to make music that would not bow to follow trends or fashion and would not compromise our ideals in any shape or form.
2005 saw the birth of our first album A History Of Things To Come engineered by Andy Faulkner (Boltthrower, Cathedral) at Sable Rose Studios Coventry. This gave us our first opportunity to focus our aggression and pushed us forward to share the stage with the likes of Stamping Ground, Narcosis, and Dragon Force to name but a few.
2006 sees us standing beside a brand new uncompromising set and looking to make ourselves heard on a larger scale.
In a confused and stagnant musical climate we stand tall amongst our peers.

Fume review by Toxic Pete
'A History Of Things To Come' is rampant hardcore metal. A heavin' metal monster of nightmare-ish vocal contortions and ball-rending riffs. Fume attack the aural senses, cut, thrust and run and leave you reelin' in the aftermath on the onslaught.
Fume seem to have totally perfected their artform; they flip in and out of the controlled mayhem and manic riffs into distinctly sensitive dark interludes that caress the tattered nerves momentarily before returning to their womd (weapon of mass destruction). The songs are superbly structured and performed with a gutsy unity; tight and sympathetically gruesome!
'A History Of Things To Come' typifies the better end of this hardcore genre. Fume nail it down solid. Although these guys (and there's six of 'em) stick pretty much within the genre they at least venture out occasionally to 'bring it down' and show initiative and musical guile - 'Instrumental' (which is unsurprisingly an instrumental) demonstrates their subtle side.
With 'A History Of Things To Come', Fume will find plenty of 'takers' - this is a damn good release and deserves to do well.
