The band was born in September of 2004 in Seattle with Xavier on guitars and Jason Stilley on drums. They were both looking to form a band blending the sounds of 70’s metal/hard rock and the new breed of 90's stoner rock bands. After a few months jamming and putting some tunes down, bass player Tim Aynardi joined the duo in February of 2005. Stilley left the band in May of 2005 and Mitch Montes came in on drums a couple of months later. The new line up revived stronger and louder than before. A few weeks later they went to record for the very first time; in August of 2005 the first self titled EP saw the light. At this point, there was no turning back. In October of 2005 Curran Evans answered the ad for a guitar player and got the place completing the final line up and overall sound of the band. The mixing of different backgrounds, cultures, musical tastes and generations created a very unique blend of sounds that powered the new band in to new territories. Unfortunately, Montes quit the band in November of 2005 leaving the band in a halt again. David Harrison replaced him on drums in January of 2006 and the band got back on track. While getting tighter as a live act during the summer gigs of 2006, they went back to the studio and started recording new original material from July to October of 2006. A more mature and conceptual idea materialized when "King of the Desert" was finally released in November of 2006. Fused went on playing every single stage that they could get on around Washington State, promoting their latest release, receiving a warm reception from audiences, and getting good reviews from overseas. After almost a year and half in the band Harrison unexpectedly quit in May of 2007. In June of 2007 death metal drummer legend David Pinochet stepped in and took the fusion to a whole new musical level. 2007 saw the band growing up, playing more live shows, gaining local recognition, and even going on its first mini tour outside of WA State. By this time, the sound of the band had grown and drifted significantly from its seminal years to a more complex, richer amalgam. A new logo was created and a renewed energy pushed the fusion. The band took a short hiatus at the end of the year and re-grouped by late December of 2007 with enough new material to hit the studio again. In late January of 2008, the fusion had a major internal meltdown when Xavier parted ways with the old line up due to musical differences. In the meantime, David Pinochet decided to leave and join another band, relocating to California. Despite the loss, David and Xavier managed to get to the studio in February of 2008 and they laid down the drum tracks for 10 new songs before David left. Undeterred, Xavier went on solo assuming full control of the recording process. These 10 drum tracks would eventually become the seed of a brand new full length album, probably the best produced by Fused so far. In October of 2008 James Hurtubise joined the fusion on guitar bringing a fresh new perspective from the thrash metal scene. Jay Barrett came in on bass in June 2009 providing a solid foundation for the new sound. Finally, after almost two years of recording “The Obliquity of the Ecliptic” saw the light in August of 2009. The full length album is probably the best material ever recorded by the fusion. The history of the band is still being written...
