Live Review: This Will Destroy You, Talons and eaststrikewest - Camden Underworld, London - 30/09/2010

Instrumental bands are becoming ever more prevalent, and with them they carry the unique ability to bury their way into your soul and disrupt it furiously. A simple chord change can somehow move you to contented introspection, reduce you to tears, and then terrify you completely. With that in mind, was there ever a more befitting venue to house an all ambient post-rock line up than Camden Underworld, situated beneath sister pub The World’s End? “Underworld” isn’t just a clever name with alt. Connotation; the venue is genuinely made from 90% shadow.

London-based six piece eaststrikewest open the night, and have the defining factor of being the only band on the line-up that comes bearing vocals. Their fusion of ambient and pop elements produces moving songs without ever being weighed down under a crescendo of distortion. Talons come next, filling the room with their original theatrical arrangements, complete with harmonised violins. Through both sets, the crowd sit kneecap to kneecap on the floor, swaying lazily like boats on water, waiting for the tempest.

EastStrikeWest London Show

EastStrikeWest have announced a one-off show at the Proud Galleries in Camden, London on October 14th. The band will be joined by a full string section for the first time.
