HERE’S WHAT THE STRANGERS HAVE TO SAY:

“SURE TO START A FIRE UNDER A CROWDS COLLECTIVE ASS” G. Starkey New Times Magazine

"ONCE YOU’VE HEARD A FIGHTING CHANCE SONG, YOU’LL WANT TO HEAR ANOTHER, ONCE YOU’VE SEEN A FIGHTING CHANCE SHOW, YOU’LL NEED TO SEE ANOTHER. NO ONE CAN DENY THE GUT WRENCHING HONESTY OF THEIR LYRICS ". Sam-Las Cruces Sun News (Carlsbad, New Mexico)

“YOU’RE DROWNING IN YOUR WEEKDAY WAR. SKALICIOUS TO MY EARS. WHAT I TAKE FROM THE LYRICS IS-HEY, BE COOL, DON’T STRESS OUT, FIND SOMETHING THAT YOU LIKE TO DO, OR YOU’LL DROWN IN THE STRESS OF MONOTONY. SIMPLE ENOUGH, PLUS, I MAY HAVE IT ALL WRONG, WHO KNOWS? AS I BOUNCE MYSELF AROUND THE ROOM, I SIMPLY DON’T CARE BECAUSE THE STRESS OF THIS DAY IS LEAVING MY BODY THANKS TO THE SKALICIOUSNESS OF THIS CUT OWED TO THE DANCABILITY AND THE TIME CHANGES THAT KEEP THIS TUNE MUSICALLY EXCITING. SHOUT OUT TO “FALLING IN”. Rich-eartaste.com

“JANUARY 2009 WILL SEE THE RELEASE OF THEIR SOPHOMORE RELEASE “A LIFETIME OF BASIC CABLE”- A DEFINITE STEP UP IN MUSICIANSHIP AND MORE DEFINITVE EXPLORATION OF SKA/REGGAE HOOKS, EARTH SHAKING LYRICS, AND SWEET MELODIES THAT CAN BE ENJOYED BY ANYONE WHO IS LUCKY ENOUGH TO CATCH AN EARFUL OF THIS MOVEMENT”- High Times Magazine 2008

Fighting Chance renews the worship of Sublime the real touring band. Ignoring the trust-fund-kid world of The Strokes, Fighting Chance cooks beans in the back of their van while touring the shit out of their amazing, dub-and-reggae-and-rock-and-alternative-inspired music. They rock everything from house parties to packed clubs and always have a good time rocking the hell out of everyone who crosses their paths. -
