Long-time friends Mike Nielsen (formerly Exmortem) and guitarist Nick Jensen (founder of the former Danish metal band Frozen Sun) started Fusskalt sometime in 2009, having fun and experimenting with a mixed breed of metal. Additional lead guitar is supplied by Thomas G. Brandt (formerly of "Crionic"), who later joins the band as a full member.

Bass player Janus Pedersen, who has previously played with Danish hardcore act Barcode, joins and Fusskalt moves activities into a proper band practice facility in 2011, only to be a drummer short a month later.

By the end of 2011 Simon Esbjerg handles the drums and in the beginning of 2012, the lead vocal is found in Lars Frederiksen ("Teddybear Conspiracy" and various musical productions). Fusskalt records the first three tracks to form the debut EP "Songs for speedin' and Crashin'". With a mix of uptempo metal rock and influences from stoner metal/desert rock, the course is set and this direction takes Fusskalt to where it is today!

Simon leaves shortly after the recording of the first EP, but the empty space behind the drums is filled in autumn 2012, as Jonas E. Nielsen (formerly of the indie/grunge act, "Rostock",) takes over.

In the following months and years, Fusskalt writes a lot of new material and release the EP "Songs for speedin' and crashin' vol. 2", as well as the singles "Drive" and "Stand in line".

A special, honorable mention goes to the unofficial, 6th member of Fusskalt: producer Henrik Hjortnæs - a.k.a. Mr. Deer. Henrik has been working with the band since the beginning, experimenting with and fine-tuning the recording processes, and he is truly the evil genius in inspiring ”the Fusskalt sound”.
