FIGHTING WITH WIRE

NEW ALBUM -- 'COLONEL BLOOD' 24th SEPTEMBER 2012 -- XTRA MILE RECORDINGS

Northern Ireland's Fighting With Wire are set to release their stunning new album 'Colonel Blood' on 24thSeptember 2012 through Xtra Mile Recordings preceded by first single and fast-paced anthem-in-the-making 'Waiting On A Way To Believe' on 20th August 2012.

'Colonel Blood' is the follow-up to their critically-acclaimed debut Man Vs Monster which earned the Derry-based trio international recognition. Recorded in Nashville with producer Nick Raskulinecz (Deftones, Foo Fighters, Danzig), the 11-song set is a straight-up rock record that delivers belting riffs, brutal rhythmic attacks and sing-along choruses. Lead guitarist and vocalist Cahir O'Doherty explains: "With this new record we really focused on the songs, we're all influenced by early 90's American rock so making this record we tried to give that 90's sound a modern makeover. It was great working with Nick Raskulinecz in Nashville, he really got what we were trying to do and helped us make this record sound huge."

Press reviews for MAN VS MONSTER

"absolutely phenomenal from the start to the end, a flawless modern rock record..." BBC Radio 1 Zane

"are living proof that despite the gazillions already used you can still come up with a fucking great band name if you try. More importantly the music matches; vicious and stinging in parts but applied with dexterity and finesse." KERRANG!

"these three guys make enough noise to drown out an Armageddon-scale nuclear attack... against a seething mass of generic and unoriginal rock and indie bands." Rocksound
