History

Fear Zero independently released a self-titled first album in early 2004. The album received Canada-wide airplay; the single "Sunday Morning" was a top 40 hit,[2] and the album contained one other top 50 charting single, "Satellite". The band toured BC and Alberta, and set out on a cross-Canada tour in late 2004.

In mid-2005, Fear Zero released their second indie album titled Concentrated. A single from that album, "Porno Nation", placed in the top ten of the annual CFOX Seeds competition in Vancouver. Later, the single "Day Of Our Last Night" would also chart in the top 50 at AOR radio in Canada.

After signing a recording deal with several investors, in mid-2007, "In Lights," Fear Zero's third album was released through Fontana North/Universal.[3][4] A video for the first single "Breathe Again" received airplay on Muchmusic and Muchloud from May 2007 to July 2007. The band played a 35-show cross-Canada tour, traveling from Vancouver to Halifax and back.[5]

A new CD was released in 2010 called "Whole Damn Nation."[6][7]
