After jetting around
the world the Eagulls are back promoting their new album, ‘Ullage’ on their
home turf of Yorkshire.
Tonights show is a
welcome return to Eagulls, selling out the Adelphi tonight was easy for this
band, but it was the support acts that sealed the deal. First act tonight was a
last minute addition of the Eagulls driver, a kind humble gent know as 99
Watts, who is simply enjoying playing with this keyboard and pedals. Second
support should need know introduction, it is home grown lads, Life. With this
being a warm up show for their Slaves UK and European tour they don’t hold back
providing a raucous set from start to finish. 
Touring support and
arguably join headliners is Protomartyr from Detroit, their set was certainly
unique as plough through a long list of tracks. Their show was not for me as it
did little to excite me. As for actual headliners, the Eagulls provided a much
better soundtrack for the night with their melodic sounds and captivating
chords. Playing songs off both albums they capture and inspire the audience’s
attention from start to finish. The Eagulls are a great representation of the
quality music scene the UK has to offer at the moment, and this has been
recognised further as Eagulls spread their wings again, touring Asia as part of
culture showcases on behalf of British arts council.
This is one band who
will flourish as their shows grow bigger and bolder.
