Five Finger Death Punch came roaring out of Las Vegas in 2005, a heavy metal band with a street-fighter name and the groove-metal muscle to back it up. The original lineup was singer Ivan Moody, guitarists Zoltan Bathory and Caleb Andrew Bingham, bassist Matt Snell and drummer Jeremy Spencer. The debut, The Way of the Fist, arrived in 2007 and caught on fast, and War Is the Answer, in 2009, went Platinum and brought "Far From Home". American Capitalist followed in 2011 and went Platinum too.
By then the lineup had shuffled: Darrell Roberts replaced Bingham, Jason Hook replaced Roberts in 2009, and Chris Kael took over the bass in 2011. In 2013 they doubled down with two volumes of The Wrong Side of Heaven and the Righteous Side of Hell; Volume 1 held "Wrong Side of Heaven", a bruised power ballad, plus "Lift Me Up" and a snarling "Mama Said Knock You Out". Got Your Six (2015), with "Wash It All Away" and "I Apologize", and And Justice for None (2018), with "Sham Pain", "Trouble" and "Gone Away", kept the Platinum and Gold certifications coming.
Spencer left in 2018 because of recurring back problems and Charlie Engen took his place, leaving Bathory and Moody as the only members on every album. British guitarist Andy James replaced Hook in October 2020, the year F8 came out with "A Little Bit Off". AfterLife followed in 2022 and Legacy in July 2026.
