For the past few months I have been looking all over the internet to find some tracks by TOY so I can link them on here and write about them. There’d be no point in me writing about a band and not having a piece of music to show you. Thankfully, TOY have uploaded a couple of tracks onto Soundcloud which you can listen to HERE.

If you love bands such as The Jesus And Mary Chain and Echo & The Bunnymen, you should love TOY. Yes they sound similar to The Horrors. Clock Chime sounds like something you would hear on Skying. Basically, TOY deserve to be your new favourite band. They have tracks that last over 5 minutes (this is one my favourite things about them) and they have hypnotising melodies that will stick with you all day, every day.

Tom’s vocals are haunting and just beautiful. His voice wraps around you, you feel yourself collapse into some kind of trance. This is what makes them great. This is what makes any band great; their ability to carry you of somewhere else. Left Myself Behind has a more relaxed sound of The Jesus And Mary Chain. That feeling I first got when I heard Psychocandy has come back alive and kicking thanks to TOY.

You can download Left Myself Behind for free from HERE.

They’ve supported the likes of The Pretty Things (a band everyone needs in their collection) and The Horrors (who they are currently on tour with.)

If you like your music to take you on some kind of trip and the vocals to send chills down your spine; then TOY are the band for you.
