Following the success of The Last One Standing Tour, there is so much hype for this one Glaswegian band tonight; Yashin!
Storming on stage to official intro We Created A Monster, quickly evolved into Runaway Train that went down with incredible ease. The track is pounding on it’s own but live, well it’s even better. Stand in guitarist Connor MacLeod admitted he messed up Let It Go, but even with that knowledge, the atmosphere was too fierce to notice. 
In <4 we get to really notice how strong Kevin Miles’ clean vocals are and just when you start chilling out...BAM, Angel’s Song is being blasted through the ears of many tonight. The band go back to old school Yashin with Friends In High Places where the entire audience went in full swing to a great track that sounded perfect, swiftly being traded for New Year Or New York which again is such an incredible song musically.
Remember that cover of Everytime Yashin did a while back? Yeah well they’ve got something brand new. One Step Closer by Linkin Park sounds like a bad cover choice, however, after hearing it, oh my god, we could say it may compete really well with the original. The power that exploded from the amps and speakers is astonishing. Ending the show tonight with Stand Up was amazing. The song is strong and heartfelt in the first place but Harry Radford’s vocals here make us forget all our troubles and sing along, no matter how bad we sound.
Yashin were remarkable tonight and it feels that Connor has fit in quite nicely following the departure of Lewis Millen. The band are touring with We Are The Ocean in February so make sure you check them out. Twin Atlantic made it, so why can’t Yashin.
