Fightstar are a four-piece alternative metal band from London, England. Formed in late 2003, Fightstar have since recorded and released two full length LP's Grand Unification and One Day Son, This Will All Be Yours and also an EP called They Liked You Better When You Were Dead. The band are currently signed to Institute records, a division of Gut Records. Origins (2003 - 2004) Fightstar formed in late 2003 after an impromptu jam session at a party in Charlie's London home. Impressed by their ability, Simpson asked the members to join a band. After a few songs had been written, the band recruited bassist Dan Haigh, a school friend of guitarist Alex Westaway. Fightstar's first EP was heavily influenced by the author Chuck Palahniuk, with the band naming a song after him (Palahniuk's Laughter) and including a drawing of Edward Norton's character in the film adaptation of the Palahniuk book Fight Club.
