THE FIERCE & THE DEAD

Saturday October 5th

The Fierce & The Dead, originating in London via Rushden, have gradually evolved into one of the most celebrated cult bands of the past decade. Initially an instrumental group, the addition of bassist Kevin Feazey as lead vocalist in recent years has brought a fresh dimension to their sound. Drawing inspiration from a diverse range of influences, including psychedelic rock, vintage metal records, post-rock, progressive rock, broken analogue synths, and shoegaze, the band has crafted a unique sonic identity.

Their latest album and first to feature vocals, ‘News From The Invisible World’, has garnered widespread critical acclaim, earning a prominent spot on Prog Magazine's list of the best albums of 2023 (second only to Steven Wilson). Additionally, it has secured placements on various other year-end lists, including Classic Rock Magazine’s critics list and readers polls. The anticipation for their upcoming UK tour, featuring live mellotron by Tom Hunt, is evident in the sold-out UK dates, booked months in advance.

The Fierce & The Dead's musical journey includes the release of four albums, four EPs, and three live albums, released either independently or through their association with Bad Elephant Music. Their breakthrough third instrumental album ‘The Euphoric’ was Classic Rock Magazine's Prog Album Of The Year, and 8th in Prog Magazine's critics choice. Having graced stages at festivals across the UK, USA, Germany, Italy, and The Netherlands, the band currently release through their self-owned label, Spencer Park Music.

"This has ‘Album of the Year’ written right through it. It’s a world class record by a band who deserve worldwide recognition” - The Progressive Aspect

“Taut songs with glorious, air punching choruses….News From The Invisible World sees TFATD taking a bold step forward” - Prog Magazine

"The work of a truly original band pushing forth and genuinely progressing. Like all great bands, The Fierce And The Dead have no interest in either merely recycling previous sounds for safety or just giving fans what they want or expect" - Real Gone

“This is a band raising their game to the highest level and that is really where they belong” - Prog Radar

“News From The Invisible World is an assured and confident album, full of the sort of hidden depths that have made the likes of Muse into household names” - 5/5, Outside Left
