February 2010
We're all very excited to announce that we will be heading out on tour this month with Hadouken! A full list of dates can be seen below - hope to see as many of you as possible at the dates. Before that we will be playing at Relentless Garage in London on Monday 8th February. If you can make it down it should be a great show. Thanks to all who came out last night to see us with Hadouken! at the Scala, hope you enjoyed your night as much as we did. TC x.

27th November 09
The A UK tour starts for real tomorrow in Oxford. Scroll down to see all the dates, work out which one is closest to you and then come to all of them anyway! These will most likely be our last shows before Christmas!

28th October 09
You can get our album online for £5, all you have to do is follow the link! http://www.7digital.com/artists/this-city/we-were-like-sharks/

19th October 09
Our debut album 'We Were Like Sharks' is released today on Epitaph Records! Buy it anywhere in shops and online, and get a bonus track on iTunes not available on the CD!

12th October 09
The first video documenting the recording of the album is online in a Rocksound exclusive! check it here!

6th October 09
We've added a few dates (London with The King Blues, Norwich and some others you may be aware of already) and some have been cancelled (Freestyle Festival) but we're still going strong. Keep up to date with our tour activities on our blog, and you can read some of the first reviews for the album by following the links there.

24th September 09
We've just uploaded a new track from our album called 'Black And Blue'. Give it a blast and let us know what you think!

You can now pre-order "We Were Like Sharks" for £7.99 from Play.com. GET ON IT!!

16th September 09
We've decided to delay the official release of the album by a week, so you can now expect to find it in all stores (both online and old fashioned) from the 19th of October, however pop down and see us on tour and there's a good chance you may be able to get your hands on a sneaky early copy! ;)

11th September 09
We've got an odd week without any shows right now, so instead we're getting ourselves geared up for yet another fabulous festival weekend!

On Friday 18th we play on the beach in Brighton for White Air Festival with the mighty Biffy Clyro and one of my all-time favourite bands The Lemonheads. www.whiteair.co.uk

Then on the Saturday we head over to Portsmouth for the Portsmouth & Southsea Festival where we get to spend the day watching loads of awesome bands in every venue in town - think Camden Crawl/Great Escape. www.myspace.com/southseafest

9th September 09
We're back and recovering from an awesome show with Set Your Goals, for anyone who missed it (shame on you) we've been added to the Freesytle Launch Party in Shoreditch, London check the details here;

http://www.freestyle-festival.co.uk/article/launch_party_weds_9th_sept_village_underground_shoreditch

Tickets are only a fiver. So get on down.

We've also got some sweet new merch on the way, start saving those pennies!

Hey all

Well, the new profile is up. Enjoy!

Our new video for We Move is also up now, have a look and let us know what think. It's out October 12th.

We've also just confirmed European tour with the awesome Eagles Of Death Metal. So all you folk on the mainland make sure you come and hang out with us. If being there isn't enough, we'll have our debut album "We Were Like Sharks" available!

   About This City


This City have been already been described in review as “like The Travelling Wilburys if it was made of members of Bloc Party and At The Drive In”. Maybe if you throw in the eyeball-popping nuances of Blood Brothers, the same turn-on-a-sixpence disco-jerk rhythms of the more danceable end of punk (think Les Savy Fav or !Forward Russia!), the impassioned cacophony of mid 80s Dischord Records-led emotional hardcore, the pop sensibility of tykes such as The Automatic and subtract the reference to Tom Petty and co, we might just be inclined to agree…

You were veryveryveryincredibly immense at Leeds stylus on Wednesday night :) I really hope I can come and see you again because you were brilliant.
Erm, Leeds doesn't have a foot fetish or anything by the way :') We just though your drummer might like some shoes, he seemed to have forgotten his? :')

The band with Dublin roots, once supported by U2, has released their debut album. Callers to radio stations wonder - who is that band that sounds like Fleetwood Mac and Texas? Just lend your ears to tracks Bending Seas and Maybe – there’s only Audiokiss in there. We hope our future paths will cross.
