Fightmilk

Fightmilk is an indie rock band from London, England. After releasing two EPs, the self-released The Curse of Fightmilk in 2016 and Pity Party on Fierce Panda in 2017, the band released their debut album Not With That Attitude with Reckless Yes in 2018.

History
Fightmilk was formed in London in 2015 by Lily Rae (guitar and lead vocals), Alex Wisgard (guitar), Adam Wainwright (bass), and Nick Kiddle (drums).

The band experimented, often flippantly, with other names before finally settling on "Fightmilk". The name is a reference to the fictional, “alcoholic, dairy-based protein drink for bodyguards by bodyguards”, created in Always Sunny In Philadelphia.

After self-releasing their debut EP The Curse of Fightmilk in 2016 they caught the attention of longstanding London independent label Fierce Panda who released their second EP, Pity Party in 2017.

Their first LP Not With That Attitude, recorded at Dean Street Studios, was released on 31 October 2018 by Derby-based record label Reckless Yes. They returned again to Dean Street for their second album, Contender, which was released 14 May 2021. Between albums original bassist Wainwright left, and was replaced by former Wolf Girl member Healey Becks.
