The Fighting Cocks, Kingston

‘Every now and again, a British band will come along with ambition on a grander scale than the majority of their peers’ (Rocksound 2015)

Patrons deliver the above intent with their debut LP ‘As Above, So Below’. It’s a delivery that reflects Patrons’ ferocious live reputation; they’ve spent the last year sharing the stage with the likes of Every Time I Die, We Are The Ocean, HECK and Black Foxxes.

Patrons’ heavy hitting full-length still retains the expanse and anthemic qualities that they promised with their previous two EPs and stand alone single; releases that received critical-acclaim from the likes of Rocksound, Kerrang Radio, BBC Introducing and BBC Radio 1 in the UK, and the likes of Visions Magazine and Slam! CD in Europe.

For a debut LP, there is no middle ground here; Patrons still demonstrate their unique ability ‘to stand-out on their own like a fucking hurricane’.
