Dead Press! Posts Review of Manchester Show

The webzine Dead Press! has posted a review of Gallows show at Manchester Moho last week on their site. A brief excerpt is below:

"Before Gallows even take the stage, most of the men of the crowd remove their shirts. It’s like something from Fight Club (but we’re not meant to talk about it). They swagger onstage and instantly dive into ‘Leeches’ to which the venue erupts in a sea of jumping and moshing, as well as invading the stage. Frank looks out at the sheer havoc he has caused and merely smirks, like this is all part of his daily routine. And he’s full of ideas too, ordering people to create human pyramids, run around a venue-wide circle pit and create a wall of death the size of the room. The crowd look border line rapid, with a glint of insanity in their eyes as they mindlessly charge at each other with a huge grin on their faces."

The setlist from the show (as found on Setlist.fm) is as follows*:

Leeches
London Is The Reason
Abandon Ship
Black Eyes
The Vulture Part II
Gold Dust
I Dread The Night
Misery
In The Belly Of A Shark
Orchestra Of Wolves

Rock Sound Posts "Classic Feature" Interview

Rock Sound has posted a Gallows interview from 2007 as part of their "Classic Features" series due to Gallows tour kickoff in Manchester last night. You can read the interview on the Rock Sound website. A short excerpt is below:

Carter stresses that every word summoned from his lungs in Gallows is entirely real, true, and relevant to his life. It’s this realness the frontman feels is sadly lacking from modern music, and he pulls no punches when assessing the efforts of other bands currently doing the rounds.

“Take Bullet For My Valentine, for example,” he says, before broadening his vitriolic vision. “Nah nah nah, not so much that. In fact take any band at the minute, what are they singing about? All their songs are hidden metaphors about suicide or death, or girls, or alcoholism. It’s ALL RUBBISH… We’ve got songs on our record about partying, right next to songs about having your head kicked in, right next to going to the dentist, right next to having your merch stolen at a show.”
