About Council of Giants

"Edgy verses with stabby guitars are countered by smooth, delicious choruses with singalong vocals supported by floaty guitars.

The debut EP oozes coolness, with funky little guitar riffs and solos in support of some really interesting vocals. So check it out for some delicious post-punk, rocky goodness."

GigRadar

"Council of Giants are a post-punk influenced band who draw from the best of the genre's past (think The Chameleons, Modern English or early Psychedelic Furs) while adding their own twist to the sound by incorporating elements of prog, goth and indie rock.

​With a well-received debut EP ‘Falling Down’ and a fearsome live reputation, Council of Giants are a band that demands your attention.”

​Generating Steam Heat

"Just how good was that? ...Brilliant...outstanding tracks"
