Kissed fm metropolis album bonus


Metropolis is the long-awaited sixth studio album released by British AOR/hard rock band FM, their first since 1995. FM reformed in 2007 to headline Firefest IV, and following Andy Barnett's subsequent departure, FM recruited new guitarist Jim Kirkpatrick in time to once again headline Firefest in October 2009 and record the new album. Metropolis was produced by the band and recorded at various studios including world-renowned Metropolis Studios in London (providing the band with the inspiration for the album title itself), where famous clients include Queen and more recently The Who and The Black Eyed Peas.

Metropolis was released 29 March 2010 by Riff City Records in the UK and on the AOR Heaven label in Europe, with tracks from the album gaining airplay on many significant radio stations, including a coveted place on the BBC Radio 2 playlist.
