I am a huge fan of the gallows, and I love their music! I found this cool fan made video of them on youtube! check out their cool music.

Alot of people in the UK got sick of them pretty quickly.

When they first came up they were quoted for things like "we don't give a fuck" and "we're going to ruin music for everyone" and then two months later they were doing the complete opposite and they're apparently douche bag people (I've never met him so can't say anything, I saw the bassist at an Every Time I Die gig but neither wanted or cared to go talk to him.)

Exactly how I feel about them haha. They just bore me. Never really liked the vocalist's style, to be honest.

There was so much hype about them and I was like "okay I'll give them a listen they must be good" and then just as I thought that Belly Of A Shark came on and I just kind of laughed for three minutes at how they're getting all this hype when they're just an awful, awful attempt at ETID

I saw them the other night when they opened for AFI. Honestly, they were probably one of the top 3 worst bands I have ever had the displeasure of seeing live. It was terrible. Say what you want about AFI but Davey can sing, and I don't think I heard one word sung by the Gallows. Their lead singer yelled at a microphone, did a shitload of stage dives, jumped around a lot, and that was about it. This band sucks

Staring at the rudebois was the single worst thing to happen to my ears

Love your username. Great song.


and about Gallows, I used to be a hugeee fan and then I grew out of them. They're the most cliche hardcore punk band ever.

Also I love how they claim to not give a fuck and all that when for magazine shoots they have fashion designers help them decide what to wear and pick stuff out for them.

I could never get into this band besides the song "Orchestra of Wolves." I did find a band called "The Ghost of a Thousand" which is similar to Gallows but muuuuuuuuuuuch better.

haha, why all the hate?

read some interviews with frank, he has always said he'll do whatever it takes to make money out of his music. he loves playing it but if he can make a fortune out of people because of it, he says he'll do it. what's more punk than making abrasive music and making money out of it?

they're a great live band. don't really understand the hate.

I don't really get all this hate either. This band is fucking awesome.

I love how they are so "punk" but they signed to warner brothers with a 4 album 1 million dollar deal...the music is pretty good though.

I keep reading the Gallows. You're confusing me with that. For a second I thought there might have been a band Gallows and a The Gallows.

Welcome to the majority of punk shows.

Yeah but at most punk shows the singer makes an attempt, however misguided, at singing. Not here

I don't think I've ever seen or heard an actual punk band try and sing. Gallows are an okay band, nothing overly special though like some people wanted us to believe with the debut

You like them? I find them a little meh. You should listen to Sharks though, they're a (less hardcore) punk band, and the guy from GOAT designed their EP artwork. www.myspace.com/sharksuk

i'm not sure i like these guys. the hype will burn out real quick i think. i dread the night is a fun song for me, but i will soon forget about this band.

Orchestra Of Wolves is a great album, I still need to pick up Grey Britain though
