艺人介绍

Fuel最早在宾夕法尼亚哈里斯堡，也就是乐队的家乡的酒吧中演出。1996年Fuel录制了Porcelain，一张自己出资制作的EP。专辑包括Shimmer的最初版本，这首歌在当地的摇滚电台点播率很高。这些引起了Epic唱片公司的注意，并一年后与Fuel签约。

1998年Fuel发行了首张专辑Sunburn，其中包括许多在Porcelain中出现的作品为给专辑作宣传，Fuel开始了为期两年半450余场的巡演。

巡演后，乐队休息了22天便开始筹划第二张专辑Something like human，这期间，Bell创作了乐队的第一首单曲Hemorrhage（In my hands）。“在开始创作歌曲时我呆在家里确保首歌都为新专辑做好了准备。”Bell说“我在圣诞节前完成了创作并在录制前给Jeff演奏了一遍。”“你不想为我演奏这首歌，因为你还不确定这首歌你是否喜欢。”Abercrombie说，“当Carl最后弹奏Hemorrhage（In my hands）时，他使我陶醉了，我相信他将成为我们举足轻重的歌。”

正如Abercrombie的预测， Hemorrhage（In my hands）帮助Fuel重复了上张专辑的双白金销量。

随着Fuel第三张专辑Natural Selection的出炉，乐队在过去的基础上，探索新的音乐领域并准备再次获得成功。

Alternative rockers Fuel comprised singer/guitarist Brett Scallions, guitarist Carl Bell, bassist Jeff Abercrombie, and drummer Kevin Miller. A product of Pennsylvania, the quartet debuted in 1996 with an independently released EP, Porcelain; the disc sold over 10,000 copies locally, with the single "Shimmer" becoming a major hometown radio favorite. Its success brought Fuel to the attention of Sony's 550 imprint, which released the EP Hazelton the following year. The band's debut full-length, Sunburn, appeared in 1998. Again, "Shimmer" proved Fuel's calling card, almost making the national Top 40 and -- with "Bittersweet," "Jesus or a Gun," and the title track (featured on the Scream 3 soundtrack) also earning airplay -- helping Sunburn to platinum record status. Fuel's second album, Something Like Human, followed two and a half years later. It spawned the hit "Hemorrage (In My Hands)" and reached 17 on the Billboard charts. Fuel followed that with 2003's Natural Selection, which was another Billboard success thanks to the strident lead single "Falls on Me." Best of Fuel appeared in late 2005; Scallions amicably parted ways with the band early the next year. That spring, Fuel was randomly impressed by American Idol contestant Chris Daughtry's cover of "Hemorrage (In My Hands)" during the show's fifth season. They offered him the position of Scallions' replacement, but Daughtry ultimately turned down singing with the group to do his own thing. Undeterred, Fuel found new singer Toryn Green by summer 2006 and began work on their fourth studio album, Angels & Devils. Ex-Godsmack drummer Tommy Stewart filled in for Kevin Miller during live performances and eventually became a permanent part of the group. Other obligations prevented Stewart from recording during the Angels & Devils sessions and Nine Inch Nails/A Perfect Circle drummer Josh Freese was brought in to cover the studio duties, and Angels & Devils was finally released in August of 2007.
