A nice review from Peter Robinson at NME: "Fightstar are a lot harder sounding than Busted. But one thing they do have in common is a knack for a killer chorus. The band are really tight musically, and after the show people who'd never heard of Busted were saying how good they were." CLICK HERE! to see the article.

Like I have said on other threads, the day that James and Fletch from McFly go solo together to do the ultimate Boyce and Hart routine is the day that I die happy.
Psuedo-indie public schoolboys faking grunge because they believe in "authenticity" is a big, fat yawn. Bring back the Ohio Express!

Why doesn't he just leave already? He's the most unattractive member. And the annoying indie-cred-obsessed one. All the things totally opposite to what I love about Busted.

Wow, Maz. That's, like, not even English, that's like, Esperanto or something. I work for a Dyslexia learning centre, and we can really do wonders these days!

“DEATHCARS ARE CHINESE VANS - IF THEY NEED AN ORGAN DONOR FOR SOMEONE, THEN THEY EXECUTE DEATH-ROW PRISONERS IN THE VANS AND BRING THE ORGANS TO ACCIDENT VICTIMS,” EXPLAINS SINGER CHARLIE SIMPSON. “I HEARD ABOUT THEM ON THE NEWS AT THE SAME TIME AS I HEARD THAT MY EX-GIRLFRIEND WAS GOING OUT WITH SOMEONE NEW. I’VE SORT OF MERGED HIM AND THE DEATHCAR TOGETHER. I’M DRIVING AND HE’S IN THE BACK…”

Written by Charlie and produced by Danton Supple (Coldplay, Doves) Down Down Down is an acoustic based, harmony flooded alt.ballad inspired in part by Charlie's love of the Beach Boys, Jackson Browne and Elliott Smith.
(Just noticed the thread I had revived was on ILE, i.e. wrong board)
