The Fight’s debut EP, Home is Where the Hate Is on Fat Wreck Chords displays a lot of potential. These kids (between the ages of 16 and 18) come from Dudley, England and they have talent. Although it has nothing to do with the music, it must be noted, that this album has some of the most annoying cover art ever, which could turn off people who are just browsing through the record store. It’s a collage of band member photos (wow, that ass shot on the back really encourages purchasing) and the band’s name and logo. It just isn’t very aesthetically pleasing.

the fight rock right now.their music is great n they will go so far.n fuk ne1 hu has posted a comment bout dem being shit, wots da point u cock suckers.anna xxxxx Saw this lot live. They got REALLY boring REALLY quickly. The album cover looks like a peice of shit (metaphorically speaking) and has a wank title. And the singer can't spell her name. they rock! i just realised i gave the fight 7/10 when i meant to give them 10. oooops the FIGHT ROCK!!!! what a bunch of wankas comment on this site. Anybody who feels they have to write 'REAL PUNX LIFE' deserves a slap.... "Well, gee, that's the thing. I'm tired of digging through the punk crap. For the past 3 years, I've downloaded, attended shows, bought albums and so forth, read reviews and there is absolutely nothing going on. Just to clarify, my "BWAHAHA" was about the Transplants. Hehehe. The Transplants. Good lord. "Nothin recently has been any good or kept my interest in the scene, aside from The Transplants." and I can't say ive ever heard any supposed 'punk' as all you people seem to claim to be.....complaining about seeing an arse..... ...alot of people on here are harsh/blatently wankers for not actually speaking to people but acting the big man by leaving messages on websites (like me....but ive been forced to)........ "I can't believe that someone actually thought this much less said it. Hey kid, go to a real show, and check out some good music. I guess that's probably hard, mom wouldn't drop you off at a warehouse somewhere. There's lots of great music out there, you just have to dig through the piles of shit to get to it." Ohmigod their website is funny. This can't be a real band can it? Fat Mike is joking, right? I can't imagine being a fan of bands like Rancid and Suicide Machines and then discuss how lame the punk scene is. I'd say that those two bands are indicative of just how crappy punk rock can be. Put on some tiltassWheel or superchinchillarescuemission. Those bands'll learn ya. megan you rock so hard!!! i looooooooove you "The punk scene blows right now. If you're expecting anything worthwhile or original in the near future, don't hold your breathe. The only notable releases coming out in the punk scene the rest of the year are Rancid and The Suicide Machines." The punk scene blows right now. If you're expecting anything worthwhile or original in the near future, don't hold your breathe. The only notable releases coming out in the punk scene the rest of the year are Rancid and The Suicide Machines. "OH WAIT! I know why this album sucks! BECAUSE IT'S ON FAT WRECK! Didn't Rob Halford have a band named Fight a few years back? Perhaps these fresh-faced youngsters are trying to draw the attention of leather-clad grizzlies to grudge-fuck the shit out of them. just type mate, it's pretty easy. ha ha, i remember these aswell, shows where you can get when you screw ppl in new found glory. my m8's in the collage, at the top, stourbridge music scene sucks, so does dudley, good luck to em either way.i can remember seeing em live once but cant remember much else about em, i just know the singer used to eb in a 'pop' girl band called '21st century girls' and that she played saxaphone in my m8's band 'amazing willy' "who gives a shit what the cover is" that's so funny you mentioned the whole 'browsing thing' cause in the store i saw this album and i thought it was a local shitty band neh... fuck this, i'm gonna listen to retromania instead OH WAIT! I know why this album sucks! BECAUSE IT'S ON FAT WRECK! Hahah..Rancid...anyway, this band is pretty terrible, but the singer wouldn't look too bad after a few(try 10) beers. Hey, speaking of Suicide Machines, has anyone else heard the new record?! HOLY FUCKING SHIT IT RULES! I got a free promo of this, eh, not bad. Not groundbreaking, but I can tap my foot to it. The punk scene blows right now. If you're expecting anything worthwhile or original in the near future, don't hold your breathe. The only notable releases coming out in the punk scene the rest of the year are Rancid and The Suicide Machines. Being harsh is fun. Meghan: Why? You're a reviewer, it's your job to be harsh. Young band or not, punk or not, there has to be some goddamn quality control in this scene. this music sucks. It's really derivative musically and the lyrics, which often signal the difference between bad and pretty good, are awful. Reviewers on this site are too apologetic for crap. This is not good punk music. Even if it's mediocre, who wants to listen to mediocre music? Who would be willing to pay money for a mediocre CD? If music isn't good, it isn't good enough to listen to. A 3 star CD is not one that I want to buy. Ugh. Sorry this makes no sense. I'm just tired of people supporting bland unoriginal music. If it is boring, it is bad. I'll agree that on the first track I couldn't tell if the singer was a boy or a girl... but I didn't want to be that harsh Is this a fucking joke? I'm already saving for the full length! The singer may be cute...if you like men having just heard this ep (not impressed at all. track 3 is the only one that i like) i can say that "At times, the vocals are even reminiscent of Bjork." is waaaaay off. Sometimes, the vocals sound like a guys. Seriously, the first track... you can't tell me thats a girl singing. holy god is that website lame. (but i will agree with the singer being cute, hehehe) Half those kids on the cover look like they belong in kindergarden. "But let's not pretend we had a rough childhood because Mom didn't buy that Playstation 2." This is really wierd, never did i expect to see a band's ep reviewed on punknews, that my dodgy punk band supported once "but the singer is pretty cute" I might check this band out when they roll through town. I think they could do better than this album, but the singer is pretty cute who gives a shit what the cover is Poorly made high school yearbook? THIS DOES NOT COMPUTE! (Nerdiest thing ever said? I think so!) I seen this band last Thurs. Pretty good... the cover looks like something out of a poorly made high school yearbook The only thing remotely cool about this band or CD is that one of the guys on the cover art is wearing a, "Foam-dome" Those things fule. I saw this band open for Brand New. They were... ok.I picked up the Ep and it isn't bad, but I can't see myself wanting to purchase an entire album by these guys. Bet you didnt know that K8 used to be in a UK kiddie pop band called 20th Century Girls did you? This lot are so fucking manufactured...and they've signed to MCA to release an album... That really is terrible cover art. God, I hate mohawks. |
