While many metal fans may associate the name Five Finger Death Punch with the kung fu move performed in the movie “Kill Bill 2,” there’s a deeper meaning behind the moniker of what is one of metal’s fastest-rising acts.
“There are five fingers on every hand” says the band’s singer Ivan Moody. “Each one of us can point in a different direction – Darrell goes this way, I go this way, Zo goes that way. But when you make it into a fist, that’s what counts. That’s where Death Punch comes from. Socially, each of us has a different lifestyle. I live in Colorado; Zo lives in Vegas; the rest of the guys live in L.A. We’re not the same human beings, but when it comes to music, we’re all out for the same fucking goal. It’s five guys, one fist”
The debut album, "The Way of the Fist" will be released on July 31 via The Firm Music.
