All tracks will be made available with iTunes having the exclusive for the acoustic version of Floods.
On March 3rd 2008, Fightstar will be releasing what some are calling their “most important song to date”. “Floods” will be available on CD, digital and 7” vinyl with each format containing exclusive tracks records especially for the release.
The band have been working hard over the festive period and, as well as rehearsing for their forthcoming tour have recorded two Radio One sessions; the Radio 1 Rock Show which will air on Feb 18th and the Colin Murray Radio 1 session which is a special all band acoustic session which will air on Jan 28th.
The single is supported by a brand new video which includes stunning CGI animated footage from the $30 million feature film, “Flood”, courtesy of the European producer and distributor Power, which made the movie. (Flood London)
Flood is written by Power founder Justin Bodle and Matthew Cope and is based on the book of the same name by Richard Doyle. Directed by Tony Mitchell, it stars Robert Carlyle, Jessalyn Gilsig, Tom Courtenay, Joanne Whalley and David Suchet. Flood, has already received a limited UK theatrical release, and makes it UK TV premiere as a two part mini series in March.
The band wrote the song after seeing “Al Gore’s “An Inconvenient Truth”. Charlie Simpson said, “like most people I was blissfully unaware of how bad things had become, and I realized that we should all be facing responsibility for the way we behave. It really inspired the whole record, how we treat our planet and our society now, is going to have repercussions in 50 years time”
With the news headlines dominated by unseasonal floods - and with much of the country continuing to struggle under water - the question is how would the Capital cope if such a catastrophe struck? Real-life flooding has seen thousands of people face serious problems over the last few weeks. To find out the facts behind the fiction on flooding in your area, sign up to Floodline on 0845 988 1188 for up to the minute flood warnings.
Fightstar are just setting out on the Kerrang Relentless Energy Drink tour 2008 – kicking off in Belfast on January 23rd, winding up at London’s Brixton Academy on February 8th.
