About Me


Song writing of the highest degree, mathematically flawless precision and unparalleled melodies are only a few minor facets that come together to bring you the unmistakably unique sound-scape that is ‘FIRST SIGNS OF FROST’
From the UK’s capital and originally formed in 2004; the five members of FSOF (Daniel Tompkins - Vocals, Owen Hughes-Holland - Vocals/ Guitar, Adam Mason - Guitar, Simon Poulton - Bass and Will Gates - Drums) have been working hard on the underground scene making a significant and extremely memorable impact. The band have shared the stage with the likes of; Lostprophets, No Use For A Name, Sikth, Architects, Enter Shikari, Flood Of Red, The Blackout, Devil Sold His Soul and The Ghost Of A Thousand to name just a few.
The appeal of FSOF also knows no boundaries as even now they have an ever broadening and rapidly increasing fan-base spanning an international platform - from the USA, across Europe to Japan and even Australia. 2007 the band released their long awaited 2nd EP ‘The Lost Cause’, through Zestone Records (Japan) to critical acclaim. The band have received coverage in high profile press such as Metal Hammer, Rock Sound, Big Cheese and Total Guitar magazine amongst others. Now writing material for their full length debut album - 2008 will be a year to for everyone involved with this band to remember…
"Impressively mature modern rock metal, they graciously sit on the line between the soundtrack to your first date & your first fight"

"The slick blend of progressive riffs and soaring vocals of this super-tight London five-piece lends itself to FSOF's inspirations (Coheed & Cambria, Fall Of Troy and Glassjaw)"
