‘Hold your Horse Is’ are a brilliantly lo-fi band, with scuzzy riffs that although could sound pretty similar if listened to consecutively, in a hot, claustrophobic club and they would sound awesome.
Things can get quite heavy at times, with a vocal delivery not dissimilar to that of Frank Carter (Gallows) at times, the instruments however (when not scuzzily riffing, of course), can just go beserk without any warning, giving a hint of the Fall of Troy to proceedings.
Not bad for a three piece eh?
Embarking on a small tour across summer (which unfortunately doesn’t see them galloping into Cornwall, the closest being Exeter Caverns), they play their first date, funnily enough, with *drum roll please*...Freeze the Atlantic!
(That was not a deliberate coincidence, I genuinely didn’t know that!)
There seems to be loads of bands using the ‘horsey’ name around these days; Pulled apart by Horses, Palehorse, Foals, HORSE the band (yes, that is their actual name)...we’ll be overrun soon!
Saying that, an equine-themed festival could be held with all of these guys playing, and it could be in a huge stable! and the bands could wear saddles! and play on each other’s backs!
Ok, maybe that’s a bit of a silly idea...
