Fight Like Apes

Irish synth-screeching foursome Fight Like Apes formed in Dublin in 2006, releasing their debut EP How Am I Supposed To Kill You If You Have All The Guns in 2007 to a wave of local blog buzz and followed it up in a matter of months with another EP David Carradine Is A Bounty Hunter Whos Robotic Arm Hates Your Crotch (yes - they've a thing for long titles). Some more singles came out both in the UK and Ireland in 2008 before - long name warning - the band's full debut Fight Like Apes and the Mystery of the Golden Medallion landed in 2008.
