FUEL Shares New Single 'Pull Me In' From Upcoming 'Pendulum' Album

August 15, 2026

Multi-platinum, Grammy-nominated rock band FUEL continues the rollout of its highly anticipated seventh studio album, "Pendulum", with the release of "Pull Me In". Arriving as the album's second single ahead of its October 30 release, the emotionally charged track reveals a deeper, more vulnerable side of the record while still delivering the crushing guitars, soaring melodies, and powerful songwriting that have defined FUEL for more than two decades.

Built around Carl Bell's poignant songwriting and Aaron Scott's commanding vocal performance, "Pull Me In" explores the tension between grief and hope — the longing to reconnect with the memories, people, and moments that once carried us through life's darkest chapters. Wrapped in massive guitars, an anthemic chorus, and the unmistakable emotional weight that has long been a hallmark of FUEL's music, the song balances vulnerability with resilience, reminding listeners that even life's deepest scars can become sources of strength.

"This song hit me like a ton of bricks when I first heard it," says Scott. "To me, it's a beautiful balance of grief combated with an unrelenting call for rescue. We all have memories in our lives we cherish and hold on to. To me, this song feels like a calling out to those memories to return and rescue us from the weight and challenges of today."

The single serves as another compelling preview of "Pendulum", arriving October 30, and continues to showcase the creative chemistry that has flourished since Scott joined the band in 2022. After first capturing national attention performing FUEL's iconic hit "Hemorrhage (In My Hands)" on NBC's "The Voice", Scott has become an integral creative force within the band, contributing not only his unmistakable voice but also a collaborative energy that has helped shape FUEL's newest chapter.

That renewed chemistry has energized founding guitarist and songwriter Carl Bell, longtime drummer Kevin Miller, Scott, guitarist Mark Klotz and bassist Tommy Nat, resulting in what promises to be one of the band's most dynamic records to date.

Since emerging in the late 1990s with a melodic yet hard-hitting brand of rock built on unforgettable hooks and emotionally resonant songwriting, FUEL has become one of modern rock's defining bands. Their platinum-certified debut "Sunburn" introduced enduring hits including "Shimmer" and "Bittersweet", while the double-platinum "Something Like Human" launched the band into arenas behind "Hemorrhage (In My Hands)", which spent 13 consecutive weeks at No. 1 on rock radio and was later recognized by Billboard as one of the most successful alternative rock songs of the modern era.

Across a career spanning more than 25 years, FUEL has earned multiple platinum certifications, Grammy nominations, and countless rock radio staples including "Falls On Me", "Bad Day" and "Won't Back Down". Their music continues to resonate across generations, while "Pendulum" finds the band honoring that legacy without standing still.

In addition to new music, FUEL will spend the summer and fall bringing its celebrated live show to audiences across the country. The band's busy touring schedule includes headline performances, fairs, casino dates and festivals, highlighted by a special intimate performance at New York City's iconic Silver Lining Lounge on September 9, presented by Scott Lipps. The exclusive evening offers fans a rare opportunity to experience FUEL up close just ahead of the new album.
