Fuel Announce Seventh Album 'Pendulum' — First Single 'Want It' Out Now
Thirty-three years after forming, the post-grunge band returns with a new singer. The album arrives on 30 October; the single already points the way — heavier than of late.
If you turned on the radio in the late nineties, you could not avoid them: Fuel, the band behind "Shimmer" and "Hemorrhage (In My Hands)", have announced their seventh studio album. "Pendulum" arrives on 30 October — their first new record since 2021's "Ånomåly".
It is also the debut of new singer Aaron Scott, and the first single "Want It" happens to mark the very beginning of that partnership: the song was the first thing Scott brought to his new bandmates. Founding guitarist Carl Bell is enthusiastic — at last someone turned up not just with ideas but with a finished song; the band, he says, has more synergy now than ever, and that is precisely what made the album happen at all.
Musically, "Want It" lands harder than much of their recent output: heavy guitars, pounding drums, an arena-sized chorus. Scott describes the song as a refusal to get comfortable — there is always another mountain to climb; even setbacks, like his depression in the early 2010s, ultimately led him exactly where he belonged.
The seventh studio album by the post-grunge band and their first since "Ånomåly" (2021) — also the first with new singer Aaron Scott.
Alongside Bell and Scott, the current line-up features drummer Kevin Miller, guitarist Mark Klotz and bassist Tommy Nat.
