Product Description

CD Description
Reissue of ferocious debut album from critically-lauded Watford punks whose punishing live shows built an unstoppable momentum which culminated in them being hailed as the best new act of 2006 and signing deals with Epitaph and Warner Bros. An amalgam of UK, Euro and US hardcore styles with a melodic bent and a furious, uncompromising lyrical stance, this is a record well deserving of its reputation. Includes the single 'Abandon Ship'.

About the Artist
The assent of Gallows has been both rapid and explosive. Formed in the conurbation town of Watford in early 2005, the quintet's members cut their teeth playing in various lauded local punk/hardcore bands before coming together to create what Kerrang! have called `the future of punk rock'. With a live performance that, in terms of sheer energy and passion, out-strips any band you care to mention, the band (Frank Carter (vocals), Steph Carter (guitars/vocals), Laurent Barnard (guitars/keys/vocals), Stuart Gili-Ross (bass) and Lee Barratt (drums) quickly built up a reputation as an incredible live act. By the close of 2006 Gallows were the most talked about band of the UK underground.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best and most convinving punk rock debut in years, 18 Sep 2006
By andrew bennett (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Orchestra of Wolves (Audio CD)
What can I say about this lot except they take hardcore punk rock and play it with such songwriting prowess and passion they should go all the way.

Imagine The Smiths were the heaviest punk band you could imagine and you are halfway there... Every scream is matched by a clever timing change and a deft moment of melodity. Perhaps most astonishing is the occasional moment of lyrical and aesthetic vulnerability in singer Frank's voice......

A classic debut that mixes nihilistic aggression with brilliant songwriting and structure, can't recommend it enough....

5.0 out of 5 stars What a relief..., 11 April 2007
By =^Ali Cat^= (Nottingham) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Orchestra of Wolves (Audio CD)
Finally a record that reveals some real pain and suffering!
These guys are playing the entire Warped Tour 2007! enough said?
This album has restored my faith in punk rock!
Best British Album I've heard since Million Dead's 2003 release - "A Song to Ruin"
I urge you to buy, they could certainly use the cash!

3.0 out of 5 stars just ok, 22 Aug 2008
After all the hype I checked the album out. My first response was resignation. Resignation to the droll cliché of punk in 2007/8. I tried to like it but I listen to too much punk for this to excite me. I laid back and listened a few times but nothing roused me. It isn't bad - some of it would be ok if it didn't remind me of a retrogression to the horrible English hardcore bands of the 1980's.
There's no politics here. No existentialism. No situationist slogans. Or nihilism even. Actually, there's not really much angst either, despite the aggressive delivery. There's no humour, just irony. There's no swagger: punk was always rock n roll. They seem to have the attitude of some of the more public US punk/hardcore bands, which is 'we have nothing to say so let's burn ourselves out screaming "fire!"'.
For some reason they remind me of the Exploited.
I don't know but I would guess these guys are from the suburbs and liked to practice in the semi-detached-with-garage.
I would recommend listening to the Bronx.
