MurMur Presents:
TALONS
Friend?
Overhead, The Albatross

Talons are an instrumental band, who call the backwater town of Hereford their home. Forging explosive energy, delicate subtleties and fractured song structures, Talons possess a fascinating sense of urgency and drive, dueling violins and crushing riffs , a sound that both soothes and savages in equal measure.
In November 2010, Talons further consolidated their place amongst their peers following the release of their debut album, ‘Hollow Realm’. The album received widespread praise in the press,listen to a stream of Hollow Realm on our facebook
Press >>>
"Meticulously planned and in general brilliantly executed, Hollow Realm is surely a late contender for one of the albums of the year."
- Drowned in Sound (8/10)
"Without need for lyrics, the three guitars, two violins and drums aptly scream a voice of their own bolting you into a seat and sending you off on a rollercoaster of emotions."
- Rock Sound (8/10)
"Talons have their execution nailed, their songcraft tight. They take a formula attempted by many to an unusually singular zenith, partially courtesy of complementary violin work that’d leave Vanessa-Mae requiring stitches."
- Mike Diver, BBC
"Managing to somehow cram a hundred ideas into a mere 40 minutes would in most cases be a cause for failure, yet Talons manage this with ease. In what surely must be one of the albums of the year, this is exhilarating music at its utter best."
