What their label says...

Tracks : A. All For Nothing / B. Photographs. Fighting With Wire are an idealistic bunch, they’ve done what rock bands are meant to do: they wrote a bunch of songs, and took to the road. The last three years has seen them play hundreds of shows with the likes of Against Me, Biffy Clyro, Million Dead, Reuben, Get Cape Wear Cape Fly, Seafood, Your Code Name Is :Milo, Future Of The Left and Ash racking up thousands of miles and honing their live show into a ferocious explosion in the process. ROCKSOUND "[FWW] are confrontational, agitated and bitter, their full-on, riff driven songs a (successful) self proclaimed attack against a seething mass of generic and unoriginal rock and indie bands" KERRANG “Derry's Fighting With Wire 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.” BIG CHEESE "[FWW] are bursting with the energy and passion of bands such as At the Drive-In, Fugazi, Foo Fighters and Kerbdog. Forget about egos, haircuts and rock stars, Fighting With Wire know what music should be about." For the three-piece hailing from Derry, Northern Ireland, it’s been an action-packed summer: beginning with a slot on the Introducing Stage at the Radio 1 Big Weekend, a headline tour followed and festival appearances at T-In-The-Park, Oxegen, Truck, Reading and Leeds. Already a firm crowd favourite ‘All For Nothing’ - is hi-octane, riff-fuelled rockage. This limited edition, hand-stamped and number single is backed with brand new song ‘Photographs’.
