Back in 2006 after Adams first project of Element disbanded, ads from Rob and later Chow were answered and the trio embarked on extensive gigging without the power of bass, until meeting Alex who left his band and joined. Hard at work for the next year 'Under the Influence' was recorded at Hellfire Studios and released in Feb '08 to critical acclaim from reviewers and fans were won over by the 'take no shit' style metal. The next 2 years consisted of touring, local gigs and competitions until they entered the studio once more to record the new album titled 'Corrupted Desires' set for release Sep '10. The new album is the product of the 4 members gelling a sound of their own and maturing a signature wall of sound.
Element have toured and played with many great local and signed acts including the Hicks, the Inbreds, Panic Cell, Diamond Head, Fury UK, Evile and Speedtheory as well as playing venues around the UK as well as Haighfest.
2010 onwards will prove clinical for the band as they set to embark on a UK tour to promote the new album.
