this town needs guns

This Town Needs Guns and Cats and Cats and Cats recently released a split EP which I had the pleasure of listening to. Drowned in Sound has a through review of the album. Both of the English bands present an American style that I did not expect. After listening to the album a few times I found my self enjoying This Town Needs Guns’ half more. Nothing against Cats, TTNG just appealed more to me. Drowned in Sound reports, “If you’re new to This Town Needs Guns, this is the best place to start – they’ve revised their sound to near-perfect levels. Hooray!” I couldn’t agree more. I found the tracks to be accessible, so long as you can tolerate emo lyrics. The pervasive guitar ‘noodling’ did it for me. And wait a second, this band is English!? You could have fooled me. Overall I would recommend This Town Needs Guns to anyone who isn’t turned off by emo lyrics.

    I’ve been spinning this split nonstop lately. Like you, I prefer the TTNG side. Some real solid stuff.
