Biography
Fuelblooded bring their unique brand of melodic death-/thrash metal to the masses since early 2002. Fuelblooded equals variety. Fast versus slow, melodic versus brutal, catchy versus complex, epic versus in-your-face - all these dichotomies have their place in Fuelblooded's music. Add abundant variation in vocal styles for a complete picture. Combined, this makes for the very distinctive and intense kind of music Fuelblooded plays.

History
Fuelblooded is a name from the new Millennium. In 2002, after several line-up changes, Fuelblooded rose from the ashes of Sacramental Sachem. Small tours with The Defaced (S), Darkane (S) and Arch Enemy (S) followed, as well as the release of the 2002 promo - which sparked international label interest. Continuous line-up struggles forced the band into a decision to record their debut album 'Inflict the Inevitable' as a fourpiece.

Debut album - Inflict the Inevitable (Copro Records, March 2006)
'Inflict the Inevitable' was recorded in different phases over the course of 2004. In december of 2004, after the recordings were completed, the band headed off to Denmark, where mixing and mastering duties were fulfilled by Jacob Hansen (Mercenary, Invocator, Raunchy, Communic). The album was released worldwide by Copro Records on March 20, 2006.
On 'Inflict The Inevitable', the band take their sound to a new level. Better songs, combined with a lethal production, make 'Inflict the Inevitable' a must-have for all melodic death-/thrash fans. From the fullspeed thrash assault of album opener 'Art of life' and 'Constructive Destruction', via the melodic midtempo crusher 'Measure Swords', to the slow and pounding sound of 'Dissector of Souls': the whole range of sounds is displayed on Fuelblooded's first full-length album. Strategically placed in the middle of the album is the atmospheric title track 'Inflict the Inevitable', which serves as a perfect interlude to 'Hate of a Thousand Ages' and the rest of the album. Prepare yourself for one hell of a ride!

The new album - Off the Face of the Earth (tbr)
In 2008, Fuelblooded recorded their second album, Off the Face of the Earth. Danny Tunker (guitars) and Peter Brinkman (vocals) completed the new line up, making Fuelblooded a stronger and musically more solid and creative unit. The band recorded nine brand new songs. For the mixing and mastering, Fuelblooded hired Jonas Kjellgren (Scar Symmetry, One Man Army, Sonic Syndicate, The Absence), who gave the album its powerful and thick yet detailed sound. The album is scheduled for release in 2009.

Live
Fuelblooded toured the UK together with Dutch melodic deathstars Detonation in May 2006. Shows with Decapitated, Six Feet Under, Gorefest and Textures, among others, followed. After the recording of new album Off the face of the Earth for most of 2008, Fuelblooded can now be found on stage again. However, the band wants to release the new album first, before a launching a large scale touring cycle again. Be prepared for that!

Michiel Rutten - Guitars
