New Music Monday: Tokyo Corner


Got this sent over on Friday and I've had it on a few times over the weekend.  Tokyo Corner are a 5 piece band from Huddersfield and have been playing for about 18 months together now.  Last  year they played some fantastic gigs such as supporting All The Young at the Cockpit in Leeds, and have had their music played on the BBC Unsigned show as well as many others. 


This year they have had the pleasure of playing with such signed bands as King Charles at Tokyo in Huddersfield, and with Proud Mary at the Empire in Leeds, as well as playing with All The Young at the Cockpit for a second time.


Steadily creeping up and making a name for themselves the band are definitely worth a listen.  With licks sounding a bit like the Stones and merging with a bit of punk swagger the band not only have an energetic sound but lyrics to accompany some mega riffs.   The band do slow it down for "Feel It Drop" which is a nice acoustic number with a real country/rock n roll appeal to it.


I personally liked "Pray For Me Sister" and 


Don't believe it?  Listen for yourself and leave some feedback droogs.


Peace.   Captain Waterloo.
