A few weeks ago we premiered Only Shadows' latest single, "At The Door Knocking", and it's fast become one of the hottest tracks on the website since the turn of the year. After their last single "Cold Shoulder" being re-released at the tail end of 2018 it looked like the future was bright for the quartet, and how right we were.
The album was made possible after the band received the prestigious 'Momentum' grant from PRS (also sponsored by Spotify), previously awarded to the likes of Jaws, Ghost Poet & Yonaka. Produced by Twin Atlantic & Fatherson mastermind Bruce Rintoul, the album promises to be one of the most exciting debut guitar records this year.
The new single - "At The Door Knocking" - is the first taste of material from their as-yet-untitled forthcoming debut album and is the band showing exactly what they're all about, soaring guitars, dominating vocal hooks and a driving backline that captures you from the first beat to the very last. They're one of the finest up and coming bands for sure.
