Our Take

FIGHTING WITH WIRE's latest album, "Colonel Blood," hits the listener like a punch in the face from a well-dressed English gentleman. With a title like that, you know you're in for a wild ride, and boy does this album deliver.

From the opening track, "Battle Cry," it's clear that this isn't your typical run-of-the-mill rock album. The guitar riffs are razor-sharp, the drums are thunderous, and lead singer Ciaran McGreevy's vocals have a gritty, almost primal quality to them. It's like a fist fight in musical form, and we can't get enough.

Tracks like "Sword of Damocles" and "Musketeers Disappear" showcase the band's ability to seamlessly blend blistering energy with melodic hooks. It's a fine line to walk, but FIGHTING WITH WIRE pulls it off with style.

But what really sets "Colonel Blood" apart is its fearless experimentation. The band isn't afraid to push boundaries, incorporating elements of punk, metal, and even a touch of prog rock into their sound. It's a risky move, but one that pays off in spades.

In short, "Colonel Blood" is a masterpiece of modern rock music. It's bold, it's brash, and it's impossible to ignore. FIGHTING WITH WIRE have cemented their place as one of the most exciting bands in the scene, and we can't wait to see where they go next.

About the artist

Fighting with Wire

Hailing from Derry, Northern Ireland, FIGHTING WITH WIRE is a band that packs a punch with their energetic blend of alternative rock and punk influences. With their catchy hooks and explosive live performances, this trio has been making waves in the music scene since their formation in 2003.

From the infectious guitar riffs to the pounding drums, their music is a sonic assault on the senses that leaves you wanting more.

Tracks like "Everyone Needs A Nemesis" and "Long Distance" showcase their knack for crafting catchy, memorable songs that stick with you long after the music has stopped. But don't be fooled by their punk rock exterior - FIGHTING WITH WIRE also has a softer side, as evidenced by their heartfelt ballads and introspective lyrics. They're not afraid to wear their hearts on their sleeves, and that vulnerability is what sets them apart from the pack. So if you're in the mood for some adrenaline-fuelled rock with a side of introspection, FIGHTING WITH WIRE is the band for you. Strap in, turn up the volume, and get ready to be blown away by their infectious energy and undeniable talent.
