    It’s beautifully crafted, and you’ve really not heard anything like it before.

    Thoughtful, relentless, arty and uncompromisingly queer, Fist City are a rough gem in the unforgiving expanse of the Rockies.

    The band makes focused noise with pop undertones, and their new record is undeniably grand.

    Their second album has much to recommend it. For the most part, songs fizz by succinctly. [Aug 2015, p.106]

    Not all bands have to reinvent the wheel; they just need to roll it with some passion and dedication. Fist City do that and more on Everything Is a Mess.

    This record is a worthy companion for the latest Joanna Gruesome album: Fist City too, blur the distinctions between indie and punk, and have a similar knack for killer hooks.
