We are proud and happy to continue this amazing journey together with Metal Blade for many years to come, this has just begun."
Metal Blade Records Owner and CEO Brian Slagel comments:

FATE post brandnew song of upcoming Metal Blade debut “Vultures”
Head over to FATE's MySpace <MySpace.com - FATE (NEW SONG!!!) - SACRAMENTO, California - Death Metal / Metal / Thrash - www.myspace.com/fate> site <MySpace.com - FATE (NEW SONG!!!) - SACRAMENTO, California - Death Metal / Metal / Thrash - www.myspace.com/fate> to check out "Your Creed is Greed", the first track available from the band's upcoming Metal Blade debut, "Vultures".
Hailing from Carmichael, California this five-piece band does not compromise the veracity of their music for anyone. Deeply influenced by all things extreme and thrashy, FATE has directed their intense admiration of metal into the focus needed to create music for a new generation of metalheads! Speed, ferocity, and the ability to write viciously energetic songs will surely set FATE apart from other acts as they prepare to take the metal world by storm with "Vultures".
"Vultures" is scheduled for release on April 18 (G/A/CH/I), April 21 (rest of Europe) MySpace <MySpace.com - FATE (NEW SONG!!!) - SACRAMENTO, California - Death Metal / Metal / Thrash - www.myspace.com/fate> fate <MySpace.com - FATE (NEW SONG!!!) - SACRAMENTO, California - Death Metal / Metal / Thrash - www.myspace.com/fate>
