Gallops return with "Darkjewel", the first single from new album Bronze Mystic
Gallops are back from the dead with fresh cut "Darkjewel" and details of their second album Bronze Mystic.
The Wrexham bunch are (at long last) following up their impressive 2012 debut Yours Sincerely Dr. Hardcore. Last year the band confirmed their return, almost exactly three years on from their initial split: "We missed it too much, basically having some time away from the band gave us a fresh perspective and made us realise that Gallops still has life in it. It just needed a nap."
This new LP sees Gallops rejuvenated (now a trio featuring Mark Huckridge, Liam Edwards, and Brad Whyte) and experimenting wholeheartedly with electronics.
"This is very much Gallops MKII," the band say. "We intend to keep pushing things further and we are already writing ideas for our next record."
"I think the move towards a more electronic sound has been a natural progression for us. These days we tend to be more excited by the possibilities of electronic music than we do by traditional instrumentation... we are very interested in marrying the real with the unreal."
