The ascent of Gallows has been both rapid and explosive and has seen the band immediately heralded as saviours of the scene. Formed in Watford, the quintet's members cut their teeth playing in lauded local punk/hardcore bands before coming together to create what Kerrang! have called "the future of punk rock" and “the best British punk band since The Clash”, with “one of the finest displays of sneering, snotty attitude since The Sex Pistols.” (Total Guitar). Gallows combine the founding fury of bands like Black Flag and Minor Threat, blended with the melodic hardcore of Refused, and a brutally honest social vision, unflinchingly tackling topics such as hometown violence, date rape and broken homes. With a live performance that, in terms of sheer energy and passion, out-strips any band you care to mention, the incredible live band release their debut album, 'Orchestra Of Wolves', a fraught collection which has their feet in the underground and their eyes looking towards bigger things.
