BACKGROUND INFO: As We Fight started in July 2001 in Fredericia, Denmark. The ambition was to give it all and to take their music far through a variety of influences from member to member, which has resulted in a blend of European, American and Scandinavian metal.
Three days in September 2002 spent with Tue Madsen at the Antfarm Studio (The Haunted, Sick Of It All, Himsa, Kataklysm, Rob Halford) were converted into the debut release, which the band released by themselves in April 2003!
This record was supported by tons of shows in Denmark and some weekend raids outside the country playing festivals. By the summer of 2003, As We Fight had landed a record-deal with Belgium's Good Life Recordings.
In February 2004, As We Fight went into the Antfarm Studio once again to record their debut full length - "Black Nails and Bloody Wrists". The album was released in April 2004 and received great reviews from magazines worldwide while the band supported the album by massive touring the following 18 months through Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, Holland, Hungary, Italy, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland in addition to a full Denmark tour with Hatesphere.
BLACK NAILS AND BLOODY WRISTS
2005 saw As We Fight writing songs for their sophomore album while continuing to play shows and festivals in Europe. In addition, the "Black Nails and Bloody Wrists" album was re-released by German label Dockyard1 while the band landed an award for "Best Live Band" at the Danish Metal Awards!
In July 2006, As We Fight entered the studio with Jacob Bredahl (Hatesphere) to record their second full length album – "Midnight Tornado"! This album shows the band from a more rock'n'roll and metal side than previously. Once again, the band chose to work with Tue Madsen for the mix and mastering process. "Midnight Tornado" was released in October 2006, and was followed by a sold out X-Mas Tour with Caliban, a headlining Denmark tour, a headlining European tour and many support jobs for highly acclaimed international metal bands.
MIDNIGHT TORNADO
As We Fight have recently finished recording songs for their third album, 'Meet Your Maker'!!!
