Gallops stream Bronze Mystic, their first album since 2012
Gallops, arguably Wrexham's finest noisemakers, are unveiling their long-awaited second album Bronze Mystic ahead of its release later this week.
Bronze Mystic arrives half a decade on from impressive 2012 debut Yours Sincerely Dr. Hardcore. We've already had a few tantalising titbits, including "Pale Force" and "Darkjewel", but now we can let the momentous volumes and textured experiments pour into our minds like the head-melting Easter Monday treat it is.
"This is very much Gallops MKII," the band say of their explosive return. "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."
Gallops have a lot of live plans this month and next - find out more below.
