From Collisions I Collapse

A typical setting, marking the foundation of a not-so-typical band.

Singer Garry Gillies and David Scott were having a drink and realised they shared similar musical influences.

After hours of consumption an agreement was reached and a band was formed in late 2007.

Never before has a brand of Screamo nodded in the direction of Spandau Ballet, but it seems to be working and record labels are knocking on the door of Glaswegian six-piece From Collisions I Collapse.

By their own admission, originality isn’t their forte, rather their unique storytelling voice.

“We’re a heavy band but we like to write a story behind our songs, but I would say our live show makes us stand out. People pay money to come see us we’re going to make it worth their while” said guitarist David Scott

The band has already played with Swedish favourites Her Bright Skies, scenesters Exit Ten and impressive touring lot Deaf Havana.

From Collisions I Collapse is currently writing a debut album after extensive label interest in the midst of a metal takeover in the underground – a subculture which demands great industry support and grabs the game by the jaffers.

Glaswegian Screamo never looked so good

Call it metal, call it screamo but hardcore is getting prettier, sellable and cleaner. That’s not to say less sanitised – but rather like the grungy undercurrent in their tunes, the rawness is equalised with a sellable face on the packaging.
