The Gallows are one of the most spectacular punk bands around at the moment
and are also one of the hardest working English bands. The band have been
touring non stop for months which has seen them take on a number of headline
tours across the UK and appearances at some of the biggest festivals in
the UK from Download festival to Reading and Leeds and also a placement
at the whole Warped tour which saw the band tour across pretty much the
whole of America for 2 months, the band have tours booked up until Christmas
with another headline tour across the UK in September and a tour around
the world as part of this years Taste Of Chaos tour. To coincide with
the bands tour across the UK, in September they are releasing their second
single from their recently re-released debut album 'Orchestra Of Wolves'
and the single they are releasing is the explosively aggressive 'In The
Belly Of A Shark'.
I was shocked a few weeks back when listening to radio one in the daytime
and Eidth Bowman played Gallows 'In The Belly Of A Shark'. I was shocked
because Gallows are one of the least radio friendly bands I could think
of, secondly the fact half the song had to be bleeped out due to Frank
Carters explicit lyrics and lastly it shows how big the Gallows are getting
and how they are bringing back raw aggressive punk to the public.
'In The Belly Of a shark' is a fast aggressive punk
song where the drumming is fast and constant and
the guitar riffs are extremely heavy with a metal
sounding guitar solo pulled off perfectly. Frank's
vocals are fast and raw sounding with extreme screams
of "In the belly of a shark and how the fuck
did I get this far".
In my opinion Gallows are the best punk band to come out of the UK since
the Sex Pistols and are here to show that punk is far from being dead.
'In The Belly Of A Shark' is one of the best songs on the bands album
and is going to help the Gallows get further to the success they deserve.
4/5
