FIDLAR'S TOO  DEBUTS  AT NO. 1 ON BILLBOARD'S HEATSEEKERS ALBUMS CHART



"The new record doesn't scrimp when it comes to giant hooks or appropriately buzzed-out guitars, but it does add an extra layer to finesse to the band's reliably scrappy songs." Stereogum
"Los Angeles punk crew hit a sweet spot between hedonism and poignancy on a multi-layered second album"  NME
"An even more brutally honest FIDLAR, like the same word written with a thicker pen and darker ink." Noisey
"Hefty helpings of both undeniable hooks and rip-roaring gusto." Consequence of Sound
"When it comes to snotty aggression and booze-fueled distortion, the Los Angeles punk band is humming at peak power on its wild new album, Too." LA Times
"The group keeps it's lo-fi, distortion-tinged California odes intact on Too, while aiming a little higher (pun intended).'" Entertainment Weekly
"FIDLAR has managed to create an honest and occasionally brutal ode to transition" AV Club


LOS ANGELES, CA - September 16, 2015 - FIDLAR's second album Too was released on September 4th and has debuted at the No. 1 position on Billboard's Heatseekers Albums Chart, which tracks the week's top-selling albums by new or emerging acts.  Too is available now via Mom + Pop Records  HERE .

Following appearances on the main stage of Reading and Leeds, a free hometown show at Amoeba Music Hollywood , and a Tumblr IRL record release event, FIDLAR kicked off an extensive headlining U.S. tour last week that  


will wrap on Halloween for a two-night hometown stand at the Regent Theater. In November the band will embark on a European tour including a headlining date at London's historic Forum. Tickets for all dates are on-sale now and the band will continue to tour the world throughout 2016. See below for a complete list of upcoming dates. 
Produced by Jay Joyce, Too was recorded in Nashville over the span of just two weeks. The 12-song collection of pop-infused garage rock expands on the band's 2013 self-titled album that put them at the forefront of modern punk music. The new album showcases a band that continues to fine-tune its sonic approach while also highlighting a more introspective and revelatory approach to songwriting. It also marks the first time the band has worked with a producer.
