WaLL

WaLL (sometimes characterised as WªLL, wAll or IIvM) are a Cardiff based punk and post-hardcore band, notable for their energetic performances, distinctive imagery, political approach, unusual sound, and dynamic approach to songwriting.

Formation
WaLL was formed in September 2014, collectively by all four members, as a side-project to hardcore/punk act; Square Peg. The members first practised with little to no preconceptions of how the band should sound. The spontaneous and impromptu conception of the song, 'Blue', solidified a musical signature.

Within a month, the band had created a four song live set, varying from up-tempo, hardcore punk-inspired outbursts, to math/post-rock compositions. This set included the anthemic, 'Hot Chocolate Kids', which would become a musical centrepiece, and lyrical mascot.

Practice-room Demos
Over a series of practice sessions, the band recorded a series of low fidelity, live renditions of these songs, using one dynamic microphone, and a four track cassette tape recorder. These tracks were Released via Bandcamp. Unmastered and Raw, the Demo exhibits the raw power and intensity that WaLL intends to create.

Summer 2015
Through various social media platforms, WaLL has hinted at further, more official recordings and releases. No strict details have yet been announced. WaLL is currently involved in the planning of a summer of intense, artistically and emotionally liberating live shows.
