Lions At Your Door

UNICORNS!

About Me

5 kids from Sydney, Australia channeling haunted mansions in the old west, the howls of dead things, old movies from outerspace, and you. Dance Dance Dance!
Nylon Magazine : From theme song “LAYD”'s visceral synths to the ominous sounding sonic force of “Glass Bottles", Lions are fierce across the board.
Drum Media : With a sound that sits very comfortably at the manic end of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs/Help She Can't Swim spectrum, it will be surprising if this group does not attain at least cult success in the indie 'scene'
Loop Magazine : "Their final calling song LAYD really summed up their unique mixture of genres showcasing a little indie, rock, electro, jazz and even slightly operatic"
we were rockstars : "It sounds too good to be true, I know, but it's all real. Their signature tune, 'LAYD', is the dance-punk calling card that you must hear."
Bigstereo : "Their vocals sound like the love child of Beth from The Gossip and Karen O. of the YYY’s….strong, loud and pounding every inch of the room."
Sandwich Club : "Possessing new vocal snarl and amazing new tunes these animals will have you roaring for paw, I mean more. Easily the most anticipated appearance on the bill." "The bunch are now truly a new breed of beast set amongst the wolves of Aussie music."
Cause=Time : "It has dance punk written all over, and sound like Love is All, but not as whiny. I can't imagine how frantic one of their shows must be."
Erika Palomino - Fashion Lifestyle Music House : "Essa é animada! Mais uma banda legal da safra australiana de grupos. Quem curte The Gossip vai amar!" - hopefully this means they like us!
whiteboydancefloor : I love the name in that it is quite appropriate, almost preemptive of the chaos this outfit plans to inflict on the earwaves. I cannot wait until they are vandalizing and terrorizing the awkwardly inferior overseas dance floors with some of that good Sydney ferocity!
BiBaBiDi : They're a powerful group that's got a knack for making some pretty raggedy yet sharp and danceable rhythms and bass lines, and I can't help but get into that.

Songs to come.

Once we get into the studio and demo some songs they'll be wacked up here straight away. Hopefully in the not too distant future.
