A Melbourne-based melodic metalcore band that formed in 2008, Feed Her to the Sharks released their self-funded debut in 2011 and soon found themselves attached to tours by '''Asking Alexandria''' and '''Suicide Silence'''. Following a year of heavy touring and scoring a contract with US-based agency Outerloop Management, the band reshuffled its line-up a little with the addition of Austrian drummer Jan Benkwitz (ex-'''Antares Predator''') and then recorded a second album in Sweden with '''Fredrik Nordström'''. ''Savage Seas'' appeared in mid-2013 after a national tour with '''Born of Osiris''' but Benkwitz had already departed the band. In October FHTTS toured with '''Oceano''' and [[Aversions Crown]] and appeared on the Vans Warped tour. Shows with '''Buried in Verona''' and '''Fit For a King''' were followed by a signing to US label Victory for their next release. ''Fortitude'' was released on February 10, 2015 and peaked at #38 on the ''Billboard'' Hard Rock Chart. In the second half of the year, FHTTS joined the Mayhem Festival in the US before returning to Australia for tours with '''Nile''' and [[Thy Art is Murder]]. | A Melbourne-based melodic metalcore band that formed in 2008, Feed Her to the Sharks released their self-funded debut in 2011 and soon found themselves attached to tours by '''Asking Alexandria''' and '''Suicide Silence'''.
