Artist History Through the trials and tribulations of life, four inspired individuals arose to unleash their heartfelt passions for all to experience. Bound by their love, opposed by the world, and supported by friendship, these four individuals embarked on a journey that would lead them to their dreams. Choosing music as their medium of emotional expressionism, these four individuals sought their destiny through various musical ensembles that led to years of frustration as they experienced minimal success or fortune and unfulfilling self-satisfaction. However, in the year 1999, led by the machinations of Fate, these four individuals converged upon one another in the heart of Jasper, Indiana to meet their destiny. This is the moniker they chose as the description of their passions: As the name ascribes, 4Fit is a band whose four members mesh together perfectly, creating emotionally churning music that showcases the individual artists in sync as one. Combining their diverse talents, influences, & desires into a single expressionistic outlet, and pouring their very heart & soul into the mix, the band has unleashed a grandly stirring sound that expresses 4Fit in a way that no amount of words can ever truly describe. Chaotically beautiful, 4Fit's unique sound & style rages with serenity and turmoil, displaying an expansive range of emotional release that will drown the listener with its overwhelming wave of passionate intensity. Led by the youthful energy and emotional conviction of vocalist frontman Judder, whose powerfully moving lyrics and dynamic styling is the epitome of 4Fit, we are invited into the band's world. From melodious singing & spoken word to rapping & hardcore/ death-metal screams, surrounded by a plethora of creatively enthralling samples & effects; diverse guitar riffs that range from melodic & beautiful to explosive & aggressive; pulsating, distorted bass and dynamic, yet vigorous drum work, 4Fit is able to create a harmonic soundscape that indulges in the realm of melodic emo/rapcore, while creating their own signature genre. Led by a desire to succeed and to share their creative visions with the unsuspecting world, 4Fit has used relentless practice, live shows and the internet as tools in the shaping of their recognition. With a unique sound & style that will appeal to a diverse crowd, 4Fit is a band not afraid to play with anyone, including the likes of Shun, Madhops, Perfect Nothing, Too Many Gods, Render One, Ninetrigger, Abraid, V-Mob, Paradox 44 Tub Ring, Calico System and many more. With the use of the internet, 4Fit has spread the sound & presence of their band throughout the world attracting the attentions of such respected music associations as Lowdown Entertainment, Undevoured, Wickedland Underground, The PRP, Dynamic Rock and Fallen Angel Promotions and various record labels. In the summer of 2000, 4Fit released their debut album "A Struggle Within". In late 2000, 4Fit's song "Anxiety" was included on Lowdown Entertainment's compilation album that also features Shun, Madhops, SW1TCH, Lylah, Shortie, and Dredg. In 2001, 4Fit released their sophomore EP "Departure From Normality" upon the world to take their status to a whole new level of success. 4Fit is composed of four individuals who have dedicated their entire lives to their passions & dreams, leading to many accomplishments and a very loyal & growing fan base. The band is determined, hardworking, and united by their childhood friendships, creating a sense of brotherhood & harmony. Strengthened by their diversity & youthful vigor and enhanced by their commitment to excellence & willingness to explore & exceed their limits, 4Fit is a band with limitless possibilities who look towards the next horizon with open hearts and wondrous expectations. Tensions mount with future release of 4Fit's 3rd album entitled "Emotional Display of Sound". Share their wonders & passions....confront your dreams....experience 4Fit....
