Punk lives.
"Orchestra of Wolves" is a masterpiece, a truly devastating hardcore punk assault on the senses which united the old punks and the new punks in joy. Frank Carter's vicious vocals track over thrashing punk rhythms while the whole thing sounds like it was designed purely to be played at full volume.
The follow up "Grey Britain" was very nearly as good, but as an introduction, with "Orchestra of Wolves", Gallows left their mark. And a bloody good mark it was too.
