 NEW YORK, NY. (Top40 Charts/ Epic Records) - Fuel has finished their fourth studio album entitled Angels and Devils. It will be released on August 7, 2007 on Epic Records. The album was produced by Scott Humphrey (Motley Crue, Rob Zombie) and guitarist Carl Bell at The Chop Shop Studios in Hollywood. Fuel will be touring nationally throughout the summer and into the fall. A full list of dates can be found on their website www.fuelweb.com. Lead single 'Wasted Time' is set to impact radio on June 19, 2007. Angels and Devils is Fuel's first record to feature new singer Toryn Green and ex-Godsmack drummer Tommy Stewart. Fuel conducted an Internet search for a singer after the departure of Brett Scallions. The band handpicked Green after they heard him sing on an instrumental version of their No 1 hit 'Hemorrhage (In My Hands)' that was posted on their website. Carl Bell spent more than two years writing Angels and Devils and many of the dynamic hook driven songs were inspired by Bell's internal turmoil when dealing with the departure of former band members and his own relationship troubles. The lyrics on the album are meant to reflect extreme sentiment in the face of animosity. Lead single off of Angels and Devils is the rock ballad 'Wasted Time.' Its infectious hooks cut through shimmering acoustic guitars and lush orchestration. Other highlight tracks include rocker 'Gone' which reveals a much heavier side of the band, and 'I Should Have Told You', a hard hitting track filled with lyrical and musical hooks signature to the band's sound. Fuel has been turning out hits since 1998 when the band released their platinum selling Sunburn. The band went on to release 2000's multi-platinum and Grammy nominated Something Like Human and 2003 Natural Selection featuring the single 'Falls on Me.' Along the way they have scored a trio of top 5 singles, 'Shimmer,' 'Innocent' and 'Hemorrhage (In My Hands'), the latter of which remained at No 1 for 12 weeks. They have now sold over 3.5 million records. With every new release, Fuel continues to establish themselves as proven hit makers.
