Customer Reviews

Another very good effort!
Fightstar may have been overlooked by many rock lovers due to Charlie's previous rookie band 'Busted'. People need to give this new band a chance. Their first 2 albums have been impressive and I'm sure there are better things to come. I can't help but feel they're still waiting to reach their peak.
One Day Son is a good album with a mix of alt rock and screamo with a futuristic and almost computerised kind of feel at times.
99 has been featured on music TV and is a solid opening track. We Apologise For Nothing, One Day Son and I Am The Message are the backbone of the album with good riffs and heavy choruses. All enjoyable tracks which help the album bounce along. Tannhauser is the pick of the bunch for me with an amazing heavy but controlled riff, strong lyrics and fast drum work. Deathcar seems a little mis-matched as it threatens to break out but then softens down again. Maybe a bit depressive for some. Floods is a slightly softer track but with a heavier chorus. Decent piano riff on this. You and I is a nice standalone track with a gentle riff and nice clear lyrics. Unfamiliar Ceilings is another solid number with an unusual bassy background and soft female lyrics which complement the track well. H.I.P Enough and One Last Common Ancestor are somewhat weaker tracks which help to make the numbers up.
Fightstar have come up with another good album here with about 5 very enjoyable tracks. My only negative is that they tend to switch their style mid-song a bit too often, I feel they should either go one way or the other as some songs can sound disjointed.
I think One Day Son is about even with Grand Unification (another good album). I'm sure this band have potential to get even better so I'm going for 4/5.

new to fightstar
i only started listening to fightstar about a week ago and never really bothered before because i hated busted. but then i heard some and found out that charlie sounds like he is doing what he always wanted to do in the first place, instead of being in a lame wanna be american band like busted. so now i have loads of respect for him and the awsomeness and quality of FIGHTSTAR! im so glad i started listening to it .

A mighty return!
I was a fan of the first album, but kept it undercovers due to certain members of this bands past qualifications. But i have no problem shouting from the roof tops about their new effort. The first 4 tracks are a spectacular start with a little more edge and hardness than the previous album. overall it is a much more mature return from a fairly under rated band
