Lions At Your Door are a band I have been meaning to write about for a while now. The Sydney gang’s ‘self titled‘ EP was frequently spun at Cougar HQ, coming across like the bastard child of Blondie and early Pretty Girls Make Graves. Forgoing the typical band lineup by adding a full time violinst augmented their already loud ruckus of jangly guitars, spooky organs and high-hat heavy drumming. Undoubtedly the bands true ace up their collective sleeve is singer Marihuzkha booming voice which dominates proceedings daring you not to pay attention.
Despite the bands indie leanings they remain catchy as fuck so I am not at all surprised to see this sextet’s music translate into other arenas, which is exactly what is happening courtesy of Gash Digital. The British label is set to release a remix album of the bands signature tune ‘LAYD‘ drafting in DJs from all corners of the world. The new mixes show Lions At Your Door in a new light spreading their appeal to new audiences.
Check out these storming tunes and THAT voice.
