Band History

Your Touch Of Fate formed as Dangerous Kids And Machine Gun Antics in December 2006 following the break up of a few other bands.

The band had their first practice in late January and their first public performance was at Black Star's Hard As Hell in February 2007.

After that gig the line up changed with guitarist Tom being replaced by Ollie and subsequently, over summer 2007, second vocalist Ben left the band and they decided to take a slightly different musical approach and also change their name to Your Touch Of Fate.

The bands influences included From Grace, Architects, Bring Me The Horizon, Clone The Fragile, Drop Dead; Gorgeous, Enter Shikari, I Killed The Prom Queen, Job For A Cowboy, Linkin Park and Norma Jean.

Their Favourite Gig

Clinton said: "The recent gig on the 15 of September, everyone in the band has agreed it was the best we played and the best reaction we had had since starting up the band, we got a lot of good reviews."

Where Are The Now

Cinton and Ben now front synth-death crew Elmer Henley while Dom Rowe now fills the space behind the kit for Five Across The Eyes and Ollie Hargreaves has returned to his previous band Funk Andrew.
