Riff-rockin’ blues kings The Fumes have reignited with a fierce energy and a new line up and are set hit the road to launch their ‘Bloodless’ album this February.
‘Bloodless’ is The Fumes’ third studio album and has been two years in the making. It was recorded as time allowed at Ivory Lane Studios with new band member and producer Ryan Hazell (The Drones, Green Buzzard, The Snowdroppers) and is a brutal tale of heartfelt truth, Blues riffs that reach for the jugular, soaring melodies, blissful melancholy, and aggressive balls-out raucousness. The Fumes have delivered an album to show they’re back and they mean it.
The former Blues duo lost a wheel off the carriage not long after the release of their warmly acclaimed album Sundancer in 2009, but roll back a few years and The Fumes were mixing it with heavy hitters, supporting the likes of Queens of the Stone Age, Clutch, Calexico, Hoodoo Gurus, The Cruel Sea, and appearing at major festivals including Japan’s Fuji Rock, CMJ Music Marathon, SXSW Austin Texas, Bluesfest, Falls Festival and many more.
