Combining the musical styles of alternative, hard rock, classical, progressive, and heavy metal, F.H.O.D. has become a band with a sound for everyone. From hypnotic drum rhythms in the vein of Tool and Rush to old school metal bass lines reminiscent of Iron Maiden and Sabbath, F.H.O.D. borrows from the old classic rock and combines current trends and modern hooks to create a sound uniquely their own. Together with dynamic guitar roar and powerful, emotionally charged vocals, this Chicago band is receiving great reviews as a live band with a huge sound and endless musical potential.
Their latest self-release, My Great Escape is out now! This album can be described as somewhat of a dark hypnotic journey, that is sometimes treacherous, but filled with hope. There's an emotional element to each of these songs that the listener will connect with, and make them their own. From the epic song of survival in "Against the Odds," to more melodic sounding "In My Shell," and "State of Mind," and the upbeat tempos of "False Prophet," "Kings and Queens," and "Unashamed," this album clearly does not leave any stone unturned. With story telling, thought provoking, and deeply personal lyrics, the listener will surely connect to the music. There is a warm classic-like sound to this CD that gives the songs character, A modern sound mixed with an old school feel, skilled musicianship, and credible songwriting abilities, My Great Escape will be an album of which people will take notice.F.H.O.D. are receiving great reviews as a band, with a huge sound and huge potential.
