    The Story of Gallows | Documentary

    ** NOTE: THIS IS ONLY AVAILABLE ON YOUTUBE - As a highly-visual documentary, and as not all podcast platforms support video content currently, this is only available on YouTube. To watch it, you can click here to head to the YouTube channel, or you can go to itsnotaphase.co.uk ** By the late 2000s, Gallows arguably became the biggest British hardcore band ever. The release of their first album, 'Orchestra Of Wolves', saw Gallows quickly become one of the biggest new bands both in and out of the UK, landing a million pound deal with a major label - something that no British hardcore or punk band has managed to land since. Join me as we take a deep dive into their career, from their chaotic local shows of the early days, their fast rise through the ranks, bagging a major label deal and committing their own rock 'n' roll swindle, to their second phase and era, the legacy they’ve built, and the members' many different side-projects. If you've got any feedback, suggestions, additional info or suggestions on bands to cover the story of in the future, please do let me know in the comments! ------------------------------ SUPPORT THE PODCAST 👉 Subscribe / Follow 👉 Leave a rating/review 👉 Sign up to the newsletter 👉 Join the Patreon 👉 Pick up some merch ------------------------------ JOIN THE COMMUNITY DISCORD | Click here ------------------------------ CONTACT THE PODCAST contact@itsnotaphase.co.uk ------------------------------ FOLLOW THE PODCAST X (TWITTER) | @inappodcast INSTAGRAM | @inappod FACEBOOK | @inappodcast ------------------------------ FOLLOW ZACH REDRUP X (TWITTER) | @zachredrup INSTAGRAM | @zachredrup TIKTOK | @zachredrup ------------------------------ BACKGROUND MUSIC: 'Rainfall' (prod. by 6astard) ------------------------------ DISCLAIMER: I do not own any rights to the images, interviews, music, videos, etc. These have been applied under Fair Use/Fair Dealing for educational, research, quotation, criticism, review, commentary and/or news reporting purposes.
