Bastions
 

Think Converge, early Lower Than Atlantis, Throats etc

They're not quite a massively common name yet, but I thought it'd be interesting to see if anyone's heard of these guys or caught them live. They had a fair amount of good press with their last release and have played loads of shows across the UK, so I'm hoping a couple of you guys may have heard them already. Their last release was through Holy Roar Records so they're kinda touching the "big time."

I'd heard their name when a band I'm in used to play in the Chester a lot. We ended up being put on a show with them so I checked them out beforehand and was blown away. I've been following them closely since and they've become one of my favourite bands. Their live sets are ridiculously incredible too. They're touring in May, do yourself a favour and catch them if you can. You won't regret it.

Oh yeah, and they're managed by Stuart Gili-Ross...aka the bassist of Gallows! Pretty cool. They have 3 releases on Spotify at the minute, We Will All Sink, Kingdom of Dogs and Island Living. If you look them up on there, my favourite tracks are Her Casket Holds No Bones and Island Living, definitely worth checking out! They're writing a full LP at the minute too.

I just found this from a show they let us open on Thursday. Just for a rough idea...
