Since rock music began, there simply haven’t been that many bands who have truly conquered the three-guitarist dynamic. Sure, Foo Fighters, Periphery, Radiohead, Iron Maiden, Pearl Jam and a handful of others have all nailed it in recent times, but the amount of head scratching required to bring the list deep into double figures may result in a bloody scalp – you have been warned.
Now, hailing from Watford, ‘glock-rock’ emo sextet Lakes join the club. They specialize in math-pop time signatures and intricately orchestrated triple guitar arrangements with nifty tapping aplenty – and yes, they have a glockenspiel player.
