Biografía

Fu Manchu is a Southern Californian stoner rock band, who released their debut single "Kept Between Trees" in 1990. Rolling Stone describes their sound as: "Super heavy and bass happy Detroit rock 'n' roll is totally deep-fried, fuzzed out, window breakin', pot sellin', sleepin-in-the-van, skater metal." Fu Manchu lyrics tend to focus on pinball, muscle cars, UFOs/Bigfoot, and skateboarding. They have featured on compilations from Tony Hawk and ESPN's X Games, been invited to perform on the US television program, Monster Garage, and featured in a documentary about skateboarding's founding crews, Dogtown and Z-Boys. Fu Manchu's latest album We Must Obey was released on the 20th of February, 2007 on Liquor and Poker Records and the band will spend most of 2007 touring to support the album. Sonically and lyrically, We Must Obey shifts somewhat from the previous, slower, 70s-based Fu Manchu sound to a more aggressive tempo. In someways it suggests a closing of the circle, as Fu Manchu originally formed in 1987 as a hardcore punk band called Virulence. Originally influenced by Black Flag and Santa Cruz, CA band BL'AST, the first line up was vocalist Ken Pucci, guitarist Scott Hill, bassist Greg McCaughey and drummer Ruben Romano. In 1989 they released their debut LP "If This Isn't a Dream..." on Alchemy Records. In 1990, Pucci left the band and was replaced by vocalist Glen Chivens and they changed their name to Fu Manchu. Soon after they released the "Kept Between Trees" 7 inch single on Slap A Ham Records. On this record, Fu Manchu still exhibited much of the hardcore sound established by Virulence. However, the band soon began to drift away fro
