Expressive instrumentalists...  Talons are an instrumental band,
who call the backwater town of Hereford their home. Forging the
explosive energy of hardcore, the subtleties of post-rock and
the fractured song structures and complexities associated with
math-rock, Talons possess a fascinating sense of urgency and
drive, with a sound that both soothes and savages in equal
measure. The band are best experienced in a live environment,
where the visceral, raw energy of their music can be fully
appreciated. So far the band have had the pleasure of sharing
stages with some great bands such as iForward Russia!, Vessels,
Caesura, Rolo Tomassi, Grammatics, Johnny Foreigner, Data Select
Party, UpCdownC, Frank Turner, I Was A Cub Scout, Gossamer
Albatross, Pulled Apart by Horses and We Vs. The Shark. Huw
Stephens recently gave the band their first airing on Radio 1,
playing 'The Tragic Decline of Buff Orpington' on his Wednesday
night BBC Introducing show... MYSPACE   Oliver, Thom, Reuben,
