Hailing from Forth Worth, Texas, Fugitive feature guitarist and bandleader Blake Ibanez and vocalist Seth Gilmore, who have been pulling double duty by globally selling out shows with both Power Trip and Fugitive throughout 2024. With Fugitive, Ibanez offers up even more of the tectonic plate-shifting aggression he's become known for.

Fugitive introduced itself and immediately grabbed the metal scene by the throat with 2022's self-released Maniac EP and its two-track follow-up, featuring "Blast Furnace."

The band has announced its signing with Blue Grape Music and has released a new track, the thoroughly crushing "Spheres Of Virulence."

Produced by Ibanez and mixed by Tom Dalgety, the track is the first taste of new music from Fugitive since 2023 — and it was well worth the wait.

If you like classic, '80s-era Metallica and Obituary, then you're going to flock to Fugitive.

A new video from director Raul Vela IV is coming soon!

More music is expected later this year, with details to be revealed in due course.

Fugitive will hit the road this July as part of The Summer Slaughter Tour, featuring Hatebreed, Gridiron, Malevolence, and more.
