No Way Out

"The Washington DC/VA area has been the spawning ground of innovative music from Darkest Hour to Bad Brains to Lamb of God. Fierce Allegiance is ready to put DC back on the map as the capital of heaviness." - DCMG Media

After spending the past four years gigging and three independent releases, Fierce Allegiance is back with a new album for 2009 "The Meaning of Sacrifice" that pushes the boundaries of metal - melding melodic death metal, thrash, hard rock and classic metal into a sound that can only be described as HEAVY and LOUD. The band spent 2007/2008 with sound engineer Ken Olden from Damnation AD writing and recording at Sheffield Studios. Looking to expand their sound, the band tapped their friend Kris Norris from Darkest Hour to play guest lead/harmony guitar and provide guitar production.

During summer/fall of 2008 Fierce Allegiance hit the road playing all over the country, which included a U.S. Tour supporting Vital Remains, Skinless, and Infernaeon.

During winter 2008/2009, the band entered Kris Norris’ studio in Palm Coast, Florida to complete re-mixing and mastering of "The Meaning of Sacrifice."
The new album speaks to a generation filled with rage, paranoia, and frustration. The songs are anthems to the voiceless; from the rapid fire of "Face the Enemy" the active rock "Love/Hate" the brutality of "Viking" the call for retribution on "I Swear Revenge" the alcoholic anthem of "No Way Out" to the destruction of enemies on "Crime of Passion." This is the sound of the mosh pit, the pain of getting your teeth kicked in, and the echo of marching to war. This album offers only a taste of what is to come - as the band will have Kris Norris produce their future releases.

Vocalist Ben Allegiance - "Collaborating with Kris was an honor. Kris' guitar playing, production and mixing skills have been nothing short of amazing! The dude sharpened our sound into what it is today. I am proud to have worked with such an amazing friend and producer."

Fierce Allegiance is more than a sound. It is an attitude. It is a way of life. They have never stopped and never given up. During the past four years these crazy metalheads have toured the U.S.A. and played more shows than can be counted - sharing the stage with every band imaginable - Vital Remains, Dragonforce, Unearth, Between the Buried and Me, Every Time I Die, Evergreen Terrace, Agnostic Front, Darkest Hour, The Devil Wears Prada, Full Blown Chaos, Dark Tranquility, God Forbid, Skinless, Terror, August Burns Red, Sworn Enemy, It Dies Today, Parkway Drive, Six Feet Under, Devin Townsend, The Misfits, Death Before Dishonor, Damnation AD, Kittie, The Agony Scene, Soilent Green, Misery Index, Living Sacrifice, The Warriors, Goatwhore, Common Enemy, Protest the Hero, Dying Fetus, A Life Once Lost, Demiricous, Caliban, All Shall Perish, and the list goes on and on!

The metal press is taking notice, as the band has been spotlighted on MTV, Bravewords and Bloody Knuckles, Lambgoat, PureVolume, Metal Maniacs, Trig.com, Metal InjectionTV and much more.
