About Blackball Fighter

Blackball Fighter have been described as "Feeder with a tiny bit of Snow Patrol", and aren't afraid of mixing synth atmospheres and effects with Led Zeppelin style riffs and intelligent chemical beats. Vocal melodies weave through the madness whilst solid and intricate bass adds the funk, making for memorable and anthemic songs.

Formed in 2005, the band members immediately moved into a converted farmhouse buried deep in the countryside of County Down, and set about writing no-nonsense upbeat and melodic rock songs that felt good to play live. Influenced by a wide spectrum of music ranging from Dream Theatre to the Chemical Brothers, and fueled by the growing and inevitable party atmosphere in the rock and roll house, the band developed the keen sense of dynamic that makes their live performances energetic and unforgettable.

The band's debut single, Fever, was released in 2007. The follow up single Hell was picked up by many independent radio stations and went into the Independent Irish Singles Chart at number ten.
