Tin Soldiers recently recorded their debut album with
Greg Brimson (Producer) and Russ Russell (Engineer) who have worked with Supergrass/Natalie Imbruliga/The Wildhearts/Bush/ Metallica
Mastering was then handled by John Cornfield who has worked with Muse/Radiohead/Feeder/Supergrass/Oasis/Razorlight.
What they say.....
Chugging guitars, explosive time changes, like Muse playing proper pop songs with Dave Grohl at the volume control. As you can imagine melodies are rife, guitars spin off and drums are given a good kicking, indeed frenetic dancing and weird shapes are often thrown as a result. Q MAGAZINE online
If you want catchy then it’s time to make the acquaintance of Tin Soldiers who rival the Ebola virus in terms of sheer infectiousness. KERRANG REVIEW - Playlist song of the week
Four-piece outfit from Kent who...kick up a mighty post-grunge racket that is highly listenable and shows promise of a band with a lot to offer. [Word's Got Out] is a punchy number with a wonderfully commercial hook and is driven along at a pounding rate by the rhythm section. The band cite Foo Fighters as a major influence and there is a clear debt to them on this, with an anthemic chorus that sticks inside your head like putty.. GOD IS IN THE TV
...bombastic and swirly guitars are very much to the fore in this track which hits all the right notes in the right order. CRACK MAGAZINE
If you're looking for melodic indie with bite 'Wait For You' is faultlessly executed, occasionally moving, and, interestingly, delivers both lush, urgent choruses and heavier moments. . LEEDS MUSIC SCENE
...its only when three hours later when your singing these tunes in the bath that you begin to clock the quality of these tunes...even with simple ingredients, it takes class to pull it off as well as these boys do.
Standout track here would be Day By Day where the band strip back the fuzz and let the singer have his lighters aloft moment. Elsewhere Just What I Needed would seem destined to soundtrack some kind of road trip moment in the next scary-pie-creek movie out of Hollywood. BUZZSAW MAGAZINE
From sensitive ballads to balls out rock songs the band can ably turn their hands to writing memorable hook laden songs. DROWNED IN SOUND
...they show a distinct ability for melody and without doubt the tracks here tick all the right boxes for mainstream radio play. THE NATIONAL STUDENT
There is a subtle but profound difference between a good song and a great song. For this writer, that line is measured in how long after the disc has left the player, you can still remember the hook. This is one department that these young Uk upstarts excel in...a positive glut of massive radio friendly choruses tumble forth from my white earphones. The list of influences are fairly transparent - a liberal dose of Grohl, a touch of death cab for cutie (especially on token ballad Day By Day)...but when delivered with the energy and confidence that these guys do it is easily forgivable. THE MAG
...they can do heartfelt and introspective as well as loud and punchy, as the contrast between Just what I needed and the gently swelling Day by Day demonstrated...If the sign of a good group is people applauding the sound check, then Tin Soldiers should be packing-out Wembley....
