"Fightstar"

Hmmm, when I heard the frontman from Busted had made a 'proper' rock band called Fightstar, I sighed.

Yet I heard them on TV yesterday, and as long as I didn't look at the screen and see his monkey spade-magnet, it didn't sound too bad.

Not enough to sell me their album though.

That is all, I guess.

EDIT - shameful typo

My brother really likes them. Has their EP or whatever it is and is going to see them play in Camden soon.


They seem ok, he keeps trying to sell them to me but meh.
At least Mr Busted is proving he's not a complete loser...Oh wait...

They pretty much suck balls, though. Really.

Yeah true. Maybe they'll get better over the years... I doubt it... but maybe.

He was a member of Busted, which makes any future musical ventures completely void of credibility.

Don't fund them.

Saw them in Oxford about two months ago with a few other bands and they were enjoyable enough. Wouldn't buy their CD but I don't hate what they're doing.

They're AWFUL.
Seriously, they are really, really bad generic nu-metal ballcrap, with a bit of emo angst thrown in for good measure.

i hope that typo was at about the point you said they weren't bad.

They might not be 'that bad', but it's a crime against decent bands to say that.

Music isn't a pleasant place, survival of the fittest. Fightstar suck.

Hate it all.
Going from mindlessly happy top-of-the-range teenypoprock to bottom-end whiney clichéd tedious teenmoperock isn't a very clever move.
