Talk:Fightstar

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Given the commercial failure of this band, do they merit more than a couple of lines (or an entry at all) on Wikipedia? This is basically Charlie Simpson's hobby. You could fill the Internet up with trivia like this!


... I think that this is devoid of information, unencylopædic, and obviously from a biased point of view.

. This new small article is much better.

[edit] Fightstar Online

Does anyone know what happened to this site?

[edit] I agree

I have removed some lines of text that were clearly made by a fan. Adamshappy 09:43, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

There is a huge amount of biased rubbish on this page, which I will remove to reinstate the page to what wikipedia should be. If it gets changed back by the fool that wrote it or anyone similar, I'll make sure it's reverted. Hate this kind of opinionated rubbish anywhere, and it's made all the more hideous in a supposedly neutral encyclopaedia. --Flamealchemist 23:30, 15 May 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Pop!?

The genre is listed as "pop". I don't know what genre they are exactly, but they certainly aren't pop. Someone's confused these with Busted.

they are not pop at all im going to put them in rock, it can be refined as to what type of rock they are after--Childzy 20:56, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

I'm not sure what to do here but it looks like it's going to keep on being reverted back to pop, which is def not what they are Stev87 21:04, 10 June 2006 (UTC)

I've put a hidden message <!---Please see talk page in reference to genre---> in the article so if people keep changing it from now on they will be warned, it seems to me that it is malicious vandalism.--Childzy 15:15, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

Fightstar are pop. It's simple. Hazy Eyes is a pure pop song. Palahniuk's Laughter is a pop hook that tries to be heavy. Waste A Moment is pure pop. Grand Unification Part 1 is indie/pop/rock. Paint Your Target is a pop anthem. Build An Army is a fun pop song that kids tend to have fun listening to. Mono is an album filler that is put into the emotional pop genre. Lost Like Tears In The Rain is a pop/rock anthem. Simple, Fightstar have enough pop songs to be classified pop!

I Disagree, fightstar may have pop influenced hooks but they are too deep in the harder mainstream genre to be pop. Just because Charlie came from Busted doesn't necessary mean his new approach to music is the same. There is no way Fightstar have any similarity to a pop band like McFly. Build an Army is not a pop song, because of the guitar and Vocals this would catagorise it as post-hardcore even with some Metalcore style agressive vocals. S Club 7 it ain't.

I would say emo/post hardcore or something... elevenzeroonechat / what i've done / email 19:51, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Decision

Can someone decide on the genre of the band because it is a vital part of the article, thank you. Paladin91 20:43, 6 September 2006 (UTC)


Google

Fightstar rock = 723,000[1]
Fightstar pop = 445,000[2]

All Music Guide

say rock [3]

So please stop changing the genre or you will be banned from editing--Childzy 16:54, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] COMMERCIAL Rock??

I feel it highly unnecessary to say they are "commercial" rock, simply "rock" will do. *edits*
