Official press release:
Goddamnit! The Goddamn Gallows are back! The punk rock outlaws have announced they’ve signed with Sailor’s Grave Records and are planning to release a brand new album called The Trial on March 23rd! It’s already been 4 years since the band released their previous album The Maker. The band’s upcoming 6th album takes their progression of mixing punk rock, bluegrass, psychobilly, and metal even further. Look out for their tour dates in support of this new album at www.TheGoddamnGallows.com.
Watch a special message from The Goddamn Gallows:
Spit from the heart of America’s Rust Belt, arising from a night of flophouse violence. Drifting across the states, they cemented their sound in Portland, OR and later in Los Angeles, CA, where they lived in abandoned buildings, squatter camps, storage units and shoebox apartments.
In 2007, they left everything behind and spent the next 4 years living out of whatever vehicle would get them to the next town. Building upon their original sound of twanged-out, punk rock gutterbilly (Life Of Sin 2004 and Gutterbillyblues 2007), they began picking up stray musicians along the way and adding to their sound; washboard, accordion, mandolin and banjo (Ghost Of The Rails 2009 and 7 Devils 2011) creating a sound referred to as “hobocore”, “gypsy-punk” or “americana-punk”, while never being stuck in any one sound.
Enter 2018 and The Goddamn Gallows have reinvented themselves once again with The Trial. From rockabilly, psychobilly and punk rock, to bluegrass and metal, The Trial infuses disparate sounds into a new strange recipe of seamless genre bending profundities.
Chock full of impromptu antics of the shocking variety and hauntingly eclectic instrumentation, The Goddamn Gallows have made legions of fans with their legendary, live shows. Catch the band live all spring/summer, on tour with The Koffin Kats, Against The Grain, Days N Daze, Gutter Demons and Murphy’s Law. Dates are found below.
