We love
home grown talent, so when we found this band we were pretty excited. Meet When Giants Collide [WGC]; a local band set to make it big.
The West
Yorkshire metal quintet are all about blending authentic
progressive rhythms with melodies and intricate riffs.
Most recently WGC were the main support for
When Giants Collide on stage in Leeds |
Their live show is everything they offer on
their E.P and more. Brutal riffs and forceful vocals are transferred to the
live stage and the end result is electric; the introduction alone is epic and
deserving of a larger venue and leads into the heavy and progressive “Wasteland”.
Powerful vocals are counteracted with soaring melodies and tight, complex percussion.
WGC don’t hold back on stage, pulling the audience in with their perfectly
synced guitar breakdowns and lead singer Scott venturing out into the crowd.
Crowd favourite, “Mustard Tiger”, is captivating and rhythmic with an ambitious
and building finale, showing just how skilful the band is.
"Versus" the EP |
WGC close the set with “Shithawks” taken from forthcoming new EP
“Versus”. “Meshuggah” and “Fear Factory” influences can be heard in the
progressive overarching sound that drives WGC. However, they are perfectly
heavy and melodic in the same breath, and are no doubt an emerging band to
watch out for from the scene. WGC are a band that work hard, know their craft
and tonight has proved just how great this quintet is.
With a firm and ever
increasing fan base, our advice is to watch out for these guys!
