1) Fate, Danish melodic hard rock band originally formed in 1984. They disbanded in 1993, but after a one-off reunion at a German music festival in 2004, Fate was reformed and they released a new album, V, in 2006.
The story of Copenhagen-based Danish melodic rock band Fate began in 1985, when former Mercyful Fate guitarist Hank Shermann (René Krolmark), Maxim Reality singer Jeff Lox Limbo (Jens Meinert), bass / keyboard player Pete Steiner (Peter Steincke) and drummer Bob Lance (Bjarne Holm) met and found FATE. With producer Simon Hanhart (Bryan Adams, Asia, 21 Guns, Yngwie Malmsteen, Marillion) the band recorded Cruisin' For A Bruisin'' in 1988, which features the ultra-catchy "Lovers" (released as a single plus videoclip in 1988) and a new version of "Love on the Rox" from the band's debut.
2) Hailing from Carmichael, California this five-piece band does not compromise the veracity of their music for anyone. Deeply influenced by all things extreme and thrashy, FATE has directed their intense admiration of metal into the focus needed to create music for a new generation of Metalheads! Speed, ferocity, and the ability to write viciously energetic songs will surely set FATE apart from other acts as they prepare to take the metal world by storm with their Metal Blade Records debut ‘Vultures’.
Formed in September of 2003, the members of Fate were still in middle school when they decided to start the band. Eager to be a part of the scene they had so much respect and adoration for; FATE began booking and playing shows in the greater Sacramento area including gigs at infamous underground venues. Come 2005 the band recruited Kyle Fishman on guitars, who was only 14 at the time, and started writing new material. This new material was so strong that it resulted in FATE being invited to play the Sacramento stop of the Van’s Warped Tour.
After playing the Sacramento stop of the Van’s Warped Tour FATE began booking out of town shows their own mini tours. During this time FATE had 2 shows a week for about a year, which is pretty good considering all of the band’s members were still in high school. FATE continued to develop a name for themselves and were getting offers for bigger and better shows including dates with bands like Bleeding Through, Unearth, Amon Amarth, Through the Eyes of the Dead, and Animosity.
Enter 2007, FATE has their first ever deal with metal label heavyweights Metal Blade Records and are picked up by the Artery Foundation Management (The Devil Wears Prada, Team Sleep, Whitechapel, The Warriors, and Dance Gavin Dance just to name a few). The band has also landed endorsements with Krank Amplification and Vitamin Water with more deals already in the works.

Victory
Fate Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The final tragedy
Only few are left alive
To face the misery
The old men dropped the bomb
It's the same old song
Victory, no surrender
Only victory
That really matters
When everything is lost
Well, we've got presidents
Older than Earth itself
And the games they play
Might send us all to hell
It's their final Jack
A bullet in your back
Victory, no surrender
There's no turning back
It's only victory
That really matters
When everything is lost
Will we make it? Huh
Like a snowball's chance in hell
Do you want someone to blame?
Or do you want the truth?
'Cos those who hold the guns
Ain't that really me and you?
That's what it's all about
Only one way out
Victory, no surrender
There's no turning back
It's only victory
That really matters
When everything is lost
Victory, no surrender
Victory, gotta give 'em all you've got
The lyrics of Fate's song Victory tell a story of despair and destruction following a tragedy that has left only a select few alive to face the extent of the misery. The first verse refers to old men dropping a bomb, making it the same old story of senseless destruction yet again. The chorus emphasizes the only thing that matters is victory, and there's no turning back; when everything is lost, the only hope is to push forward towards success.
The second verse highlights the dangers of those in power - politicians that are older than Earth itself and their dangerous games that could send everyone to hell. The final Jack in their game is a bullet in your back, emphasizing that no one is safe from the destructive intentions of those in power. The pre-chorus reminds us that there is no hope for succeeding in such a bleak situation, as we have a snowball's chance in hell.
The final verse questions who really holds the blame - is it those in power wielding the guns, or is it the average citizen? The only way out of the endless cycle of destruction is through victory, giving it our all to succeed. This song speaks to the power dynamics and destruction that can arise from those in power and the importance of fighting to rise above it all.
Line by Line Meaning
It is the morning after
The present is defined by the recent past
The final tragedy
The end of the world as it has been known
Only few are left alive
The world has been devastated and very few remain
To face the misery
The survivors must endure the harsh reality of their situation
The old men dropped the bomb
The people in charge made the decision that led to the apocalypse
It's the same old song
This pattern of disaster has repeated throughout history
Victory, no surrender
The only way to survive is to persevere
There's no turning back
The past cannot be undone
Only victory
The goal is to survive against all odds
That really matters
All other concerns are secondary
When everything is lost
The stakes could not be higher
Well, we've got presidents
The leaders of society have failed
Older than Earth itself
The cycle of corruption and decay has lasted since the dawn of civilization
And the games they play
The ruling class engages in power struggles
Might send us all to hell
Their actions could have catastrophic consequences for everyone else
It's their final Jack
Their reckless decisions are their last act
A bullet in your back
Their actions have lethal consequences for innocent people
Will we make it? Huh
Is it possible for humanity to survive this disaster?
Like a snowball's chance in hell
The odds are not in our favor
Do you want someone to blame?
Is it more important to assign fault or to find a solution?
Or do you want the truth?
Is it more important to know what happened or to know how to fix it?
'Cos those who hold the guns
The people with power control the situation
Ain't that really me and you?
The common people have little influence over the outcome
That's what it's all about
The conflict is ultimately about power
Only one way out
The survivors must find a path to safety
Victory, gotta give 'em all you've got
The only chance for survival is to fight with all available resources
