Drowned in Sound

It’s the best representation yet of the sheer force of the band live, a perfect half hour snapshot of the energy and aggression they’ve never properly captured on tape.

Gallows may have been floundering during the last days of Frank Carter’s time with the band but this very impressive comeback is the sound of a band reinvigorated.

Consequence of Sound

Gallows doesn’t lose a step from the band’s ferocious hardcore ways, instead making muscular strides forward.

Close your eyes, don't read the band title and this is a very good punk record with strong Everytime I Die and Trash Talk influences.... essentially Gallows in name only... but still, very good

I loved this so much. Frank was such an iconic frontman for Gallows and the thought of replacing him seems impossible but Wade absolutely nails it. Where they used to have elements of bands like Crass with Frank, they now sometimes remind me of Cancer Bats and letlive. which is a huge compliment. The riffs are still huge and the energy and pace has not gone anywhere. I just wish it had a bit more variety like Grey Britain had.
