Fightstar is a four-piece alternative rock band formed during 2003 in London. The original and current line up consists of Charlie Simpson (lead vocals, rhythm guitar, keys), Alex Westaway (lead guitar, vocals), Dan Haigh (bass guitar) and Omar Abidi (drums, percussion). They are currently with their managements imprint label, Search and Destroy Records, which is distributed via PIAS Recordings. During the band's initial emergence, they were faced with much scepticism due to Simpson's former pop career. However, they began to receive positive reactions to early live shows and their debut EP, They Liked You Better When You Were Dead was a critical success. Since then, their three studio albums have obtained Top 40 chartings and critical praise. Indeed, debut album Grand Unification was regarded as "one of the best British rock albums of the past decade" by Paul Brannigan of weekly rock magazine Kerrang!. Scottish publication, The Fly, also said that the album "remains one of the 21st Century’s ultimate rock debuts".
