It would have been horribly cruel if We'll Be the Moon had fallen short of expectations, not to mention extremely ironic. With its title, and the album's cosmic sound, the London group, point to an otherworldly sort of atmosphere being created within, and they seem to be convinced that not even the sky is the limit. It helps, then, that the long-awaited debut is absolutely out of this world. Three of its songs have already been released as singles, but such is the confidence displayed by Fixers on the album that they are able to treat their older [...]

Crafting zany, heartfelt pop snippets but assuring us they can rock out in the silliest of ways, Fixers set out determined to crack a smile on the most sullen face with their extended play Pop Meat/Your Corruptor (an American re-release of Here Comes 2001 So Let's All Head for the Sun ). The name change may simply not matter for fans in the States, but whatever this EP is called, it has the flair and pluck to hint at the capabilities of this Oxford quintet..

I'm not going to sit here and pretend I was a Minor Threat fan my whole childhood. In truth, Minor Threat was one of the last punk bands I got into.

Seems the old 9:30 Club Building in DC, the [...]
