   About Southpaw
Emotive melodic hardcore rock that has little to do with teen movies, painted nails, complexions that haven’t seen the sun for months and an obsession with black...

" ..might just be the best emo band in the UK...a quality level that puts them on a par with The Get Up Kids... flies by like a young Dag Nasty" (KKKK) KERRANG!

"Top quality songs. Well played punk rock that’s confidently melodic in a Leatherface kinda way. I’m impressed and so should you be" - SUSPECT DEVICE

"...perfect musically and the vocals are strong. Inventive compositions, huge melodies and faultless execution. I couldn't recommend a British record more highly than this...as good a record as you'll get to hear this year" FRACTURE

"Expect dramatic guitars, crashing drums and a combination of melody, raw energy and emotion." (KKKKK) KERRANG!

‘These guys are really sounding pretty f***king good these days, kinda like a more English Samiam, big rock riffs, clean picked guitars, pop hooks and powerful vocals.’ FRACTURE

"This is just excellent. Neat harmonies, powerful guitar action and ultra catchy hooks. They could become one of the biggest bands of their ilk." - VISION ON

After a 5 year break the band are working on new material and are excited about sharing the results with you.

The blueprint of writing real songs with strong melodies, drive and depth is still there, the love of mid 90's melodic hardcore (emo?!) is still there, the same old chords, the same old faces, its evolved but it's not a revolution, sometimes that's not a bad thing...

Milloy - The best UK melodic punk rock band right now. From Wakefield, these guys burn with melodic ferocity. I last saw them supporting Samiam and The Draft and they blew me away. An absolutely amazing band.

Arch Stanton - Melodic rock with teeth. Foos, Samiam, Hot Water Music.

Plus one more TBC.

Sat 6th Jun @ Marquee, Norwich. Only £3.50. It’s a steal!!
