Following the departure of Gallows original frontman Frank Carter, almost at the same time it was announced Gallows would headline the fall’s Alt Press Tour, fans have understandable been wondering who the hell would be fronting the band. Now, with the break up of Alexisonfire, the answer has been formally announced.
Former Alexisonfire guitarist Wade MacNeil will be joining Gallows as their new vocalist. In an interview with Alt Press Wade discussed how he came to join the band and how his different vocal style will effect the band’s music:
“I definitely think I have a very, very different voice than Frank-and I mean aside from yelling, I think just the tone of my voice is going to be the one thing that’s really, really different. Even though I’ve spent a lot of the last 10 years touring England in various bands, I don’t have a British perspective for everything, so whereas the last record was definitely focused on Britain specifically, I think everything we’re going to do in the future will definitely have more of a worldview. That’s something everyone in the band can relate to, because we spent the majority of our youth traveling the world playing punk shows.”
