With a few songs already written, the band welcomed a second guitarist into the fold, |finally realising their visions of a massive sound, backed by some well structured song- |writing and bonecrushing riffs.|The search for the perfect vocalist is never an easy one, so the band pursued an active |rehearsal and songwriting schedule as an instrumental four-piece, whilst different vocalists |were tried out. When Steve Conquest was spotted performing feet first dives and generally |causing trouble at a lame emo show, they knew they had their man and thus the line-up was |complete. In no time the vocals were added to the five songs which were put to tape just two months |later by Our World Records. Only 300 tapes were made and sold out in no time, while the |band was busy playing dozens of shows all over Europe with nothing more than a demo under |their belt. 1ST ROUND KNOCK-OUT was even rated `demo of the month´ in Germanys´ |leading magazine for Rock and Metal music, `Rock Hard´. The demo sparked the interest of some independent labels, which led to the release of a |split CD with Crisis Never Ends on Punchline Productions in January of 2005. The rest of the |year FP played shows constantly, sharing the stages with acts like Agnostic Front, Hatebreed, |Terror, Comeback Kid, Champion, Heaven Shall Burn, Walls Of Jericho, Cataract, Sworn Enemy… After a European tour with their buddies in Teamkiller in September 2005, the band enterd |the famous Kohlekeller Studios, home of bands like Crematory, Under Siege, A Traitor Like Judas|or Six Reasons to Kill, to record their debut album entitled “RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW” for |Let it Burn Records in January 2006. The result is one of the most powerful and toughest records of the year. Plain, pure and |brutal hardcore with a strong sociopolitical message, a combination, hardly known these |days. RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW will erase all your doubts that a hardcore-band from Berlin |would not be able to play in one league with Hatebreed, Terror and Throwdown. |
