In 2007, McFadden will release their first album with hits such as Trust, Lawsuit and their Voodoo Bar entry, George McFadden. Their Voodoo Bar entry became a hit and is was played on Iceland commercial radio. The band said on a newspaper that the will try again for Voodoo Bar 2009.

Their debut album “Trust Fund” has been recorded and will be released in Russia in late 2007. Note: the album might not see a release. Only one copy exists and it has yet to be pressed yet.
