THE METAL HAMMER PRESENTED TRESPASS AMERICA FESTIVAL
CONTINUES TO RECEIVE RAVES FROM MEDIA AND FANS ALIKE
Five Finger Death Punch has hit #1 with
the band's current single "Coming Down." The track is the tenth
consecutive Top 10 hit at the Active Rock format, cementing the act's position
as one of the most relevant at the format. Going back to "The
Bleeding" in the spring of 2008. Five Finger Death Punch is one of
the most heavily played bands at rock radio, as "Never Enough,"
"Stranger Than Fiction," "Hard To See," "Walk
Away," "Bad Company," "Far From Home," "Under And
Over It," and most recently "Remember Everything," each has
become an anthem in its own right. The band's current album, American
Capitalist, continues to sell extremely well with 436,254 copies sold since
its debut at #3 on the Billboard charts October 11th. The imminent certification
of the band's third record to hit RIAA-Certified Gold status over the last two
years, and cumulative track downloads exceeding one million sold,
displays that there are few acts more successful than Five Finger Death
Punch.
Singer Ivan Moody shares, "radio stations across
the U.S., and basically the whole World, have been very supportive of the band.
We are grateful and remain indebted to them for stepping behind us, and
as our fan base continues to grow year after year, it is clear that rock radio
is far from dead. People are listening. With 'Coming Down,' there is
obviously a deep message of hope this song lyrically offers. To have
success on the radio with a track that is so meaningful to me personally, and
many others, is an amazing feeling."
The Metal Hammer presented Trespass America Festival
featuring headliner Five Finger Death Punch kicked off in Broomfield, CO on
July 13th. The tour has travelled west to east, and now begins to snake
its way towards Los Angeles where it wraps on August 28 at the Hollywood
Palladium. Guitarist Zoltan Bathory recently shared, "It's
exhilarating to produce shows this magnitude, especially taking it from
the drawing board all the way to giant stages nationwide... The only thing that's
even more exciting than watching our vision materialize is seeing the fans'
reaction." The 31-date tour, headlined by Five Finger Death Punch,
also features Killswitch Engage, Trivium, Pop Evil, Emmure, God Forbid, and
Battlecross. Images from the tour opener can be found here:https://10thst.box.com/s/4b98505baf689a6e509f.
