Fifth Sun, The Bio

How in the hell does an unsigned band travel halfway around the world to record an album, not once, but twice??? How is it possible that this unsigned band managed to be the first American band to record at the notorious Studio Fredman??? Hard work, dedication, devotion, and determination for starters...With roots stretching back to 1992 and the inspiration of Bay Area Thrash, Florida Death Metal, and early European thrash/death metal; The Fifth Sun began its journey out of the remote north of Minnesota. 9 years after their humble beginnings, The Fifth Sun recorded their first full-length album, 'The Moment of Truth', in May of 2001 at Studio Fredman in Gothenburg, Sweden. 'The Moment Of Truth' was released independently, as no suitable label deal could be found. Ultimately, the album garnered rave reviews from the metal press around the world.
