Artist description
Walking the thin line between darkwave, heavy metal, and goth rock. |
|
Music Style
Walking the tightrope of sensuality and aggression, lust and hatred, sadness and anger. Gallows Hill celebrates what has made gothic music great at the same time redefining the genre and pushing the boundaries of what is commonly accepted as gothic music. Marrying the seductive melodies of Switchblade Symphony with the aggression of such thrash bands as Megadeth and Sabbat is an undertaking Gallows Hill does not take lightly, and they are prepared to make believers out of you all. |

Press Reviews
"you know i'm not a big gothic music type of person, but I like the stuff this band produces. This song now has lyrics and I think it is good, dark, and sexy for Samhain.. Come on people, time to get orgasmic... =)" - Witchy Teens
"Penetrating vocals accompanied by guitar excellence. Plodding drums, somewhat stoner metal (i.e. Black Sabbath) in that regard." - Noise from the Gerbil
"Great band." - The House of Mp3 Greats
"Well, you've made it tough for us to follow you." - Chris, drummer, Divine Cycle
Featured band on Cemetary Music Promotions for three months running.

Additional Info
NEWS: Recording is underway for the 'Love Songs For The Disillusioned' album. We have recently hired Jason Currie to fill the long-empty slot of bass player, and Terry New to be our programmer and keyboardist. He'll have some pretty big shoes to fill, but we're confident he can do the job! |
