OPINIÃO PESSOAL

Depois de ter acidentalmente ouvido a "In the Belly of a Shark", foi amor à primeira audição. Gostei bastante do "Orchestra of Wolves", acho um lançamento completamente refrescante dentro do género.
Mas o que me fez render completamente foi "Grey Britain". Tive o album durante uma semana prái no PC sem o ouvir com medo de me desiludir, mas é uma obra absolutamente fantástica. O sentimento da banda é transmitido de uma forma completamente avassaladora e o ambiente criado durante todo o album é aterrador. Do inicio ao fim, mergulhei numa atmosfera decadente e ao mesmo tempo enraivecida. Simplesmente grandioso. É traçado um retrato perfeito de Grã-Bretanha em que eles vivem. O fim do albúm ("Crucifucks") é épico, emocionante e assutador ao mesmo tempo.
O que mais me agrada sem dúvida é o sentimento da banda, um albúm para sentir e não para ouvir. Um grande "fuck off" à técnica e a todas às merdices que vemos ai em cada canto e uma prova que quando as coisas são sentidas, são grandiosas.

AMO.

Gallows' great rock'n'roll swindle
Last December, the UK's angriest band were dropped by Warner Music. But in taking the money and recording a brutal second album, the hardcore punks from Hertfordshire had the last laugh.

"We are the British music industry's biggest mistake," Gallows frontman Frank Carter told me 12 months ago during an interview promoting their second album, Grey Britain. Carter was responding to a question about how a punk band reacts when they've just signed a £1m record deal with Warner Music.

Rather than popping the champagne corks though, Carter was in the kind of articulate, unflinching mood that has made him a favourite interviewee for music journalists. Signed off the back of their live reputation and scorching 2006 debut Orchestra of Wolves – a punk/hardcore hybrid recorded by their mate in a house in the home counties – Gallows hit the jackpot with a lucrative deal when few bands were getting advances. And they were smart enough to know that, in many ways, it was all downhill from there. For a group that recalled second-wave UK punk bands like Discharge, it was the most brilliantly ridiculous major-label signing of recent times. "We see other bands being told what to do by their paymasters, but we're not one of them," guitarist Laurent Barnard said during the same interview.

Perhaps Warner Music was expecting a new Green Day or My Chemical Romance – inoffensive pop-punk for pre-pubescents – but those in the know recognised a great rock'n'roll swindle on a par with Malcolm McLaren's manoeuvring of the Sex Pistols through deals with EMI, A&M and Virgin over 18 months. "Cash from chaos," McLaren called it, while John Lydon quipped: "All we're trying to do is destroy everything."

Gallows reacted to their own swindle by recording an ambitious second album even harder and uglier than their debut. A damning yet oddly nostalgic indictment of "broken Britain", it featured string sections recorded at Abbey Road, an accompanying film and a fold-out poster of a Carter painting featuring masturbating clergymen, anal fisting, vaginal mutilation, pigs in police uniforms and dripping entrails. The album received rave reviews, but sold only 20,000 copies in the UK and 50,000 worldwide. The one single to chart did so at No 147. Last December, the band were dropped by Warner Music.

But on the surface what looked like an underachievement is actually the opposite: with their uncompromising sound and brawling live shows Gallows have gone further than any British hardcore band ever has. Spiritual forefathers such as Black Flag, Crass and Concrete Sox might have rightly railed against the establishment, but major-record deals were never an option for them. Gallows did the right thing. Knowing they could never be Green Day they took the money, toured the world and recorded an album so brutal no one could ever accuse them of selling out. Unlike so many landfill indie bands who have declared they have "made the album we always wanted to make" you suspect the Hertfordshire quintet have done exactly that.

They might currently be unsigned, but Gallows emerge from an 18-month tenure on a major record label with their credibility and bank balances, if not their egos, intact. Warner Music, meanwhile, has emerged with egg on its face and, no doubt, a large debt to right off, confirming once again that the best music cannot be steered, shaped, focus-grouped or marketed, no matter how huge the budget. It just happens.

GALLOWS @ Lives of the Artists, by Relentless
(full movie here)

The Gallows chapter of Lives is perhaps the most provocative of the three, but that's just the way they are - and always have been.

Gallows' Chapter Trailer:

Este filme (aproximadamente 80 min) é simplesmente fantástico, principalmente o segmento "Gallows".

When you work for the father
Your sin is never saved
You carry the net and he holds the spade.
You will drag the lakes and he will rob the graves.
You will be remembered
No one will speak your name

Essa parte da letra ficou-me logo a primeira vez que ouvi o álbum.
Quanto à banda, conheci-os com o grey britain. Acho o álbum um obra prima, e acho a banda genial!

Básico. Zangado. Agressivo. Directo. Simples. Sincero.

Gostei.

edit: só para a dizer que estou mesmo a curtir disto. Isto é o que devia ser o punk... simples, zangado, violento, inglês
