A week or so ago, whilst feeling fruity, I posted this deliberately provocative statement on the ANBAD Twitter feed : I mean, really, most people's attraction to new guitar-based bands is purely based on a romantic attachment to bands of the past.

I first noticed the Bristol, UK native Falcon Lake, aka Leon Piers, with his dark, hypnotic contribution to the great Night Tape put together by Life Crushed (still available for download here). The boy must have felt the Summer days coming since, because he released a much lighter yet equally mind-blowing "Drown" EP via Bad [...]

Give it a play below and grab a free download here .

I no longer drift off into a sleep-like state when on public transport. No longer can a song like ' Shores ' sent me into that sort of trance.
