Video for Fists - Cockatoo - Out now on Hello Thor!

Hola,

I just heard from Nick that the Fists records have arrived today at Hello Thor HQ, free at last from the French fishermen's blockades and box fresh in Nottingham.

It's going to be really great to finally see & hear them. The test pressings sound AMAZING, so with the brilliant cover and proper label they will be even better.

It's been so exciting seeing them start to get picked up by magazines and the radio... artrocker, BBC6 on Steve Lamacq's show, XFM... can't wait to see what's next! There's something really strange about hearing a song you are so familiar with in that official radio setting, it sounds really new and different.

Anyway, here is the video for Cockatoo by Fists, available now on vinyl or to download from www.hellothor.com. The video has been created by the very talented Dan Toporowski, a wonderful animator and visual artist:

Go Fists!

Fists single launch - THIS SATURDAY!

Come down to the Art Organisation for the Fists single launch this Saturday!

Not only is this the first release on the new Hello Thor record label it is also Fists' first single - Cockatoo b/w Skit. It looks set to be an amazing gig with Mexican Kids at Home, Rory McCarthy &, of course, Fists themselves all playing live. There might also be a secret special guest (!) and Daddy Bones will be DJing.

The single has already been getting attention & airplay from XFM, Artrocker & the BBC. It will be available to download from www.hellothor.com after the launch and is actually really brilliant. On the night you will be able to pre-order / buy vinyl 7" singles with a great cover designed by Fists' own Angi Fletcher using an photograph taken by Steve Mays - www.smays.com - at a Halloween party in the 70's. Brilliant!

I can't wait!
