We are a metal band based in Johannesburg but beginning to reach further across the country. Our biggest influences in terms of genres are melodic metalcore and anything kick-****, although we have specific bands as influences that all combine to give us our unique style, there are too many to list here.

We are currently tearing up the gigging circuit in Johannesburg, Pretoria and surrounding areas. At the same time we are preparing to go into studio to record an album. Lots of work on new songs is being done and we are consistently refining our vision for the album.

The band formed back in 2006 with Adam and Matt and a shared vision of creating a metal band with a difference and a unique sound. The band has gone through some inevitable line up changes over the years but in each case we feel it got bigger, better and stronger as a result. The current line up is still Adam working miracles on rhythm and Matt rocking the bass but with Sam providing spine-tingling vocals, Wouter playing electrifying leads and Max cranking out legendary drum beats.

FC are driven by a simple mantra and it's one you'll hear us chanting often... "Party all the time." We don't mean this in the standard, lets-get-drunk and break stuff sense, but rather as an expression of the view that the music we play is fun, any gig we are at is done for the sheer love of it and life can be simply about having a good time.

We have had quite a history of good and large gigs - Woodstock 10, Witchfest 2008, Season’s Wither 2 & 3, Thornfest 1- 3, Polarity fest and many more. We have also played in Secunda and gone on a tour to Durban and we are confirmed for Potstock, happening in October. FC is sponsored by the likes of Music Connection & Iron Fist Clothing.
