Welcome to the phenomenon that is Fury UK! A unity of spirit, determination & skill has transported this British classic metal trio to tours with Saxon, Michael Schenker & Y&T, performances at Bloodstock & Hammerfest festivals, international appearances & 3 albums since 2007.

Metal Hammer (review of Hammerfest 2010) "it's always good to discover a new favourite band at festivals and Fury UK seem destined to fit that bill for plenty of people. Their stirring old-school metal sidesteps retro cliché and goes for the jugular with lashings of blistering lead work and planet-sized tunes"

Based in Manchester, Fury UK are influenced by the likes of Iron Maiden, Megadeth, Iced Earth, Dream Theater, Saxon, Metallica & Rush. The amazing reaction to live gigs is a measure of this band & all the more impressive for being delivered within the dynamics of a 3 piece….

In 2007 Fury UK signed to Rocksector Records & later that year the debut album "Face Of Adversity" was released. The EP "Salvation" quickly followed in 2008, plus a breakthrough appearance at Bloodstock Festival the same year. Fury UK’s 2nd full album entitled "VR" (July 2009) gained further excellent reviews & full UK tours with Blaze Bayley & Michael Schenker Group. Late in 2009 Fury UK made debut appearances on foreign soil, touring with Blaze Bayley in Greece & at Switzerland’s prestigious venue Z7.

By the beginning of 2010 the band was being hailed by Metal Hammer in its’ Hot List for the year & played Hammerfest where the line-up included Iced Earth & Saxon amongst other big names. 2010 saw the band grow in stature & the 3^rd album “A Way Of Life” released in September was welcomed with open arms by a surge in the band’s fanbase, & critical acclaim followed….

Classic Rock (album review) "Increasingly lauded as a gloriously fiery live act, Fury UK are students of metal's old school, & yet there is a sizzling, life-affirming freshness in every second of A Way Of Life.... one of the most exciting British metal albums of recent times"

Powerplay (album review) "Jaw droppingly good production.. loud, crisp & beautifully balanced.. riffs & hooks galore.. the clean vocals come into their own during the big choruses.. top notch musicianship.. more than a hint of Megadeth"

Big Cheese (album review) "Brilliant riffage.. spectacular vocals.. dynamic hooks & infectious material"

Soon after the 3^rd album release a full UK tour with American hard rockers Y&T was undertaken which cemented 2010 as a landmark in the band’s development. During that year Fury UK also played further dates overseas when they headlined Belgium’s Wizzfest & returned to Switzerland later in the year.

2011 has seen the band continue it’s hard work ethic by hitting the road with a relentless 35 date UK/Euro Tour which included 12 dates with British metal legends Saxon, a perfect platform for Fury UK to continue it’s excellent progress. That tour has included Euro dates in Belgium, France & Holland & encouraged by the audience reactions, a tour across mainland Europe is now anticipated for the latter part of 2011.

Finally a few words from a seasoned & respected pro.. Dave Meniketti of Y&T in an interview with Midlands Rocks…. "an exciting young bunch..  one of the best responses of any opening act that we’ve had in the UK for a long time.. they get out there & kick ass"
