This Town Needs Guns are a math/indie-rock band from Oxford in the United Kingdom. The band's music is technical; but heavily melodic. Kerrang compares them to "mathcore men Minus The Bear covering seminal Mancunian miserablists, The Smiths." TTNG have recently signed to Sargent House [Daughters, Russian Circles,Maps & Atlases].Their debut full length album, 'Animals was released in October 2008.


This is a description of a band called Adebisi Shank

This self made instrumental juggernaut have been razing Belfast to the ground with their remarkable live performance which have been described by the press as stunning and unmissable and for which they achieved gig of the month from NME. After selling out of their much anticipated debut EP in just 6 weeks the mammoth mind melting machine that is And So I Watch You From Afar have been tipped by all the Irish and Northern Irish press, had high praise from Kerrang! and become a firm favourite on BBC Radio 1 receiving nationwide airplay on the Huw Stephens show and having recorded a live session for Radio 1.

I enjoyed this overall. Adebisi were their usual great, And so i watch you are impressive and I enjoyed their set but I wouldn't be a fan of their music, and This Town had some awesome guitar playing but ultimately the singer with the comedy moustache distracted from the whole thing.
