Representative Albums: "Hate Brought to This Place Called Home
Biography
Based out of the San Francisco area, Short Fuse was formed early in 2005 by vocalist Myke DiBattista, keyboardist Martin Boynton, and bassist Tony Eakes, who had been playing together in a successful band but broke away to follow their own path, which ended up being a mixture of fast metal rhythms with electronica atmospherics and hard rock and rap certainty. Guitarists Scott Chavez and Anthony Flick were soon added, songs were passionately and quickly written, and the band began recording with Roman Marisak at his Los Angeles studio and with Juan Urteaga at Trident Studios in Pachero, CA. The self-released debut, Hate Brought to This Place Called Home, appeared later in the year. Drummer Joe Zapantis was added to the lineup before Short Fuse entered the studio to begin a follow-up album. ~ Steve Leggett, All Music Guide
