FM are one of UK's most enduring and most loved melodic rock / AOR act. They have released eleven albums to date.
In the U.S., they are often referred to as FMUK as there exicsts a progressive rock band from Canada with the same name.
On September 8th, the band are celebrating the 25th Anniversary of the release of their classic 1986 debut album "Indiscreet".
In conjunction with great reissue label Rock Candy they've assembled a Deluxe 2 CD set containing no less than 18 bonus tracks.
We have the original album plus rare BBC sessions and a live track on one CD, while the extra disc includes rarities such as singles b-sides, extended 12'' remix versions, live tracks and for the first time on CD, the rare instrumental version of "American Girls" (only appeared on a mega rare maxi-single vinyl back in 1986) special to demonstrate your skill at the mic!
This 24-bit remastering from the original source tapes sounds excellent, and these songs - needless to say - are absolutely gorgeous pure golden AOR Melodic Rock classics. A Must Have!
FM was formed in the summer of 1984 in London.
The band was originally composed of the ex-Samson pair of bassist Merv Goldsworthy and drummer Pete Jupp, the Overland brothers – vocalist/guitarist Steve and lead guitarist Chris Overland, both formerly of Wildlife, and keyboardist Philip Manchester, also known as Didge Digital.
They are currently writing and recording for their follow-up album to 2010's "Metropolis", due for release in 2012.
