Fighting With Wire – Man Vs Monster
Posted by AlMachine on Tuesday, April 29, 2008
It is time for another punk band from Derry, only this time influenced by Green Day, At the Drive In and the rest of the wave of American bands rather than the grandfathers that were the Ramones. “Cut the Transmission” and “Everyone Needs a Nemesis” are suitable short and sharp. “Into the Ground” and “The Quiet” have shades of Therapy? and the At the Drive-In influences can be heard throughout.
This is pretty good. The level of quality control is kept high in the song writing, and the songs don't outstay their welcome. Whilst you cant accuse them of being original, you can't fault them for being energetic, committed and a damn site better than a lot of the rubbish around; They deserve a fair crack of the whip and a shot at the big time.
7/10
