this shit is underrated. Better than Grey Britain in my opinion. All in all just so much better than half of the shit out there

even today.

English quintet Gallows re-work early 80s U.S hardcore & 70s English punk to release a raw, raucous & aggressive debut. It is a relentless onslaught from the very beginning as lead vocalist Frank Carter passionately delivers pissed-off lyrics that are intermittently indecipherable & occasionally offensive. 'Orchestra of Wolves' is at its best when melody is infused into the equation and when the guitars are driving the songs. But it arguably all comes together only once on lead single 'Abandon Ship'. The album is very front-loaded, to the point that after track 6, Carter's voice simply becomes too over-bearing. Recommended Tracks: Abandon Ship, Six Years & Come Friendly Bombs.

Why does this have the cover of the re-release if it has the tracklisting of the original album?

Edit: that's better

Checked out a few of their songs. They sound pretty solid, but not quite as unique as Gallows. Pretty

similar bands so I'll probably like them. I'll listen to Ghost of a Thousand's albums before I listen

to Pure Love's... Really not looking forward to that.

"Just because you sleep next to me doesn't mean you're safe"



That song is now 1000x better than when I first listened to it.
