11. Gnarwolves
Melodic hardcore/punk rock/hardcore punk
I know it's hard, you're hungover, or you're still awake, and who cares about the first band on, you'll pay attention when they're higher up the bill and worth your time. Well, you're what's wrong with music today. Yes, you specifically. No, not because you know how to party or because this intro is cheesy as hell but because you can't be bothered to drag yourself to some new and exciting music because it's on too early. If you would like to redeem yourself, I suggest you get up and get along to catch Gnarwolves opening the Lock Up stage, and if you're not going to Reading or Leeds just listen to them anyway. They're a three piece from Cornwall based out of Brighton who play a melodic but gruff take on punk rock that touches upon elements of classic and modern hardcore punk. If you like skating, drinking, Polar Bear Club and Title Fight, you'll love these. http://youtu.be/nPSINVJw4Xk
