about

"Following a series of gritty releases, Fist City’s sophomore LP It’s 1983, Grow Up! wipes off a few previous layers of scuzz to reveal the catchy set of tunes that were there all along. From surf-rock to shoegaze and a twisted strain of new wave, the supercharged collection sounds like a band reinvented." - Jesse Locke (Noisey; Music by VICE)

"The band’s sound remains hard to describe definitively. The album is diverse enough to hold one’s attention; some tracks are short, sweet, and succinct statements of the post-punk/riot grrl variety. Others convey a colder, ultra-modern brand of psychedelia. Tripped-out fuzzy breakdowns pick up where demented surf romps end. Pop sensibilities abound yet all are propulsive and a little bit frantic – guaranteed to leave the listener with a spring in his or her step while inspiring smash-and-grab belligerence. Yep, the cool kids are gonna have a lot of fun with this one." - Brenna L. (Scene Point Blank)

Released on Black Tent Press, Summer 2012.

Fist City is a four piece; a pack of earnest weirdos with a penchant for churning out music that screeches and rings with the blood-rush of a night crime yet charms with sugary sweet pop jangles and kool surf sleeze.
