It may have taken a few years, but Hertfordshire quartet Lower Than Atlantis have seen a somewhat stratospheric rise on the back of new studio album Safe in Sound. The record, which sees them undergo their largest UK tour ever later this month (including a show at the prestigious Brixton Academy), is by far the band’s most varied and powerful to date, encapsulating hard-hitting rhythms and lyrics of a higher quality than ever before. Last night, the band took their co-headline tour with Young Guns to the Patronaat in Haarlem. Here’s what went down…
