The Derry three piece have recently signed a multiple album deal with Atlantic Records and are touring with their new album ‘Man vs Monster’ - 45 minutes of razor sharp riffs colliding full force with huge melodies.


Fighting With Wire emerged from the ever creative Northern Ireland music scene in 2003, the brainchild of guitarist Cahir O’Doherty (Jetplane Landing / Clearshot) and drummer Craig McKean (Clearshot).


An idealistic bunch, they’ve since 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 shows with the likes of Reuben, Biffy Clyro, Million Dead, Seafood, YCNI:M and Future Of The Left, racking up hundreds of miles and honing their live show into a ferocious explosion in the process.


After putting out a number of limited edition DIY singles, they took a breather at the end of 2006 and finally started work on their long-awaited debut album.
