Call Upon The Author

Rolo Tomassi is a name I’ve heard many times before, often mentioned in the same breath as Gallows and The Bronx, but I’ve never actually gotten around to giving them a listen. Whilst they do share some traits with the aforementioned bands they have a sound that marks them out as different from the usual hardcore fare. Instead of playing straight ahead hardcore/punk, Sheffield’s Rolo Tomassi throw in synth and more experimental elements into their song. Coupled with having a female vocalist in a genre dominated by males it makes for a more unique listening experience.
