Gallows
Punk, Hardcore

"Bands who use anger as a gimmick are just fucking insulting," says frontman Frank Carter. "We write about things which are real to us. There's no fucking around. With us, what you see is what you get. Gallows are as honest as rock and roll gets."

"Bands who use anger as a gimmick are just fucking insulting," says frontman Frank Carter. "We write about things which are real to us. There's no fucking around. With us, what you see is what you get. Gallows are as honest as rock and roll gets."

Fed up with 'emo' bands who "disguise real issues with flowery lyrics", Gallows are a soundtrack to the downsides of modern life, especially life in England. Their sound is at times, very similar to British Punk bands like the Sex Pistols. Mixed with modern day hardcore, Gallows' music is exciting, raw and digestible for modern music fans while being a breath of fresh air in a scene that so often easily confuses pop and punk.
