About Fu Manchu
Fu Manchu grew out of the Orange County hardcore scene, with guitarist and singer Scott Hill steering the band from punk speed toward slower, heavier riffing in the early 1990s. Former Kyuss drummer Brant Bjork joined in the mid-1990s and played on records including 'The Action Is Go' and 'King of the Road', the period that cemented the band's place in the stoner and desert rock world.
Their sound leans on 1970s hard rock and thick, distorted guitar tone, with cover versions of Blue Öyster Cult's 'Godzilla' among their staples. Later albums came out on their own At the Dojo label.
