CMU Approved
Approved: Talons (Best Of Approved 2010)
By Andy Malt | Published on Monday 6 December 2010
Instrumental sextet Talons fuse all the best bits of post-rock, math-rock and hardcore and then top it all off with two violin players. It’s a winning formula that makes for an exciting and energetic sound both on record and live. To date the band have released four limited edition singles through Big Scary Monsters, and their debut album, ‘Hollow Realm’ was released last month and is fast becoming one of our favourites of the year.
The urge to hear this band that I have clearly awakened in you needs to be acted upon immediately. Luckily, they’ve got quite a lot of songs up on that internet thing everyone keeps talking about, and if you happen to be in mainland Europe right now, they’re playing all over the place over the next couple of weeks.
