Biography

Born in 2013 under the initiative of Zaza Bathory (drums) and originally an all-female band, Furies made a great leap forward in 2015 with the arrival of Lynda Basstarde (vocals and bass), then in 2016 with the enrolment of "symmetrical" lead guitarists (one left and one right-handed) Billy Lazer and Sam Flash.
The band has finally come to its mixed and definitive line-up.

The self-released demo tape 'Unleash The Furies' (2017) earns Furies a nice media coverage, even beyond rock and metal publications, as the combo is invited to play live on Canal + TV (a famous French private TV channel). Later during the year, it is the national radio station France Inter (equivalent of BBC and NPR) that invites the band at the occasion of their surprising heavy metal cover of the pop standard 'Mourir Sur Scène' of the French artist Dalida, recorded at Labomatic for a compilation.

Furies is also a well-oiled scenic machine that crossed swords on stage with bands such as Cauldron, Raven, Diamond Head, Evil Invaders, Insanity Alert, Ultra Vomit, Blasphème, No Return, ADX... and played at numerous festivals in France and Germany (Hellfest, Bars En Trans, Rising Fest, Taunus Metal Festival?).

The band will reschedule in 2021 gigs in Sweden (Muskelrock), Danmark, Germany and France, initially expected this year but cancelled due to the pandemic.
