Sheffields This City Limits release video for single Amputate
This City Limits is an alternative rock band from Sheffield, England, formed in January 2013.
The band draws its influences from a contemporary wave of American punk rock that includes bands such as Rise Against, Against Me! and Polar Bear Club, and from British alt-‐rock groups such as We Are The Ocean and Mallory Knox.
The music is characterised by loud,aggressive drumming, distorted guitars and melodic vocals.
In February 2014, the band booked in to Soundhouse Studios, Sheffield to begin work on their second E.P. Two singles, ‘Amputate’ and ‘Colourblind’, will be released with accompanying videos in April and May.
In the coming months, the band is also booked to play shows at 360 Club in Leeds and Tramlines Festival in Sheffield.
The band consists of lead vocalist Will Turner, bassist Ed Thornton, drummer Sam Hamer, and lead guitarist George Turner. Brothers Will and George came together in January 2013 to begin writing original material, and were quickly joined by Ed, who’s experience playing heavy metal and acoustic folk immediately added another dimension to the sound.
Sam was recruited several months later, and provided the final element of the band’s style.
Since releasing their well-‐received debut E.P. Brittle Brass and Broken Bone in October 2013, the band have played a long list of shows, mostly in the Yorkshire area.
In February and March 2014, This City Limits also played several gigs as headline act for Fourth City Promotions and Who Cares Music.
This City Limits are currently unsigned, but are looking for management.
