Hand of Fire is an American thrash metal band that originated in California. The band started in 2015 as a vision of Frontman, Jim Settle, formerly of Tantrum of the Muse.[1][2]
Background
In 2010, Hand of Fire formed with Jim Settle (formerly of Tantrum of the Muse) and Corey Steger (formerly of Underoath) as just a project.[3] The project started to write music and record. The original band was Settle, Steger, and Stephen Mark Sarro (formerly of Tantrum of the Muse), who the band later let go.[3] Rottweiler Records heard the music and sent the project a contract.[3] Due to the distance between the members, Steger left the band, while Settle organised an official lineup. In 2015, the band officially started as a vision of Settle's.[1] In May 2016, Hand of Fire signed to Rottweiler Records.[4][5] The band consists of Vocalist Jim Settle, Guitarist Tiago Souza, Bassist Tom Eaton, and Drummer Bill Davies. The band's debut album, Let the Killings Begin is due to be released through Rottweiler in 2016.[3] Later it was announced the album would be released on December 3, 2016.[6] The band later released a lyric video for the title track of the album.[2][7]
