Talons

Talons released their excellent debut album, ‘Hollow Realm’, way way back in 2010. Who can even remember back that far? Well me, for one. Because otherwise how would I even know to write this? It was a stupid question really. I mean, surely most people can remember back five years. Actually, it’s less than four years, if I’m honest.

Anyway, ‘Hollow Realm’ was both excellent and memorable, a collection of heavy instrumental rock soundscapes with layers of violin adding extra drama into the mix. But since then the band have released precisely zero albums. And that is a fact that will remain true until 4 Aug this year, when Talons release album number two, ‘New Topographics’.

The first single from the new record, ‘The Wild Places’, is available for SoundCloud-based listening now, and shows that they have lost none of the energy of their debut. The band will also be touring in September, including a date at Birthdays in London on 12 Sep – full dates here.
