The original lineup consisted of Stuart Smith on rhythm guitar and vocals, Tim Collis on lead guitar, Simon Thompson on Drums and Ian Lewis on Bass. Ian and Simon left the band in 2005, to be replaced by Dan Adams (replaced by Jamie Cooper during the recording of Animals in 2008) on bass and Chris Collis (brother of guitarist Tim) on drums in early 2006. In earlier careers, bassist Jamie Cooper had worked as a graphic designer, drummer Chris Collis had been a librarian at the University of Oxford, guitarist Tim Collis was a primary school teacher, and lead vocalist Stuart Smith worked building websites for a publisher. On May 11, 2011, it was announced on This Town Needs Guns' website that lead singer Stuart Smith would be leaving the band to start a family, and that he would be replaced by Pennines' singer and guitarist, Henry Tremain. Bassist Jamie Cooper also left the band in late 2011 to focus on a full-time career in graphic design. Tremain has since taken over on bass guitar duties, converting the band into a power trio.
The band's second and third studio albums, 13.0.0.0.0 and Disappointment Island, were released in January 2013 and July 2016, both via Sargent House.

This Town Needs Guns Lyrics
While time waits for no man
I'll be here in winter.
Tear down your baracades
So I may enter.
Your lips are warm
They comfort me.
Open up
And lets begin.
So I'll lay on this
Bed that I have made.
So soundly sleep
And whisper your name.
Oooooh you…you burn me up.
One touch and I am in
A trance like state.
Entwinning our fates to another
The cost of our will now both bound to each other.
What was in your head
When you said
"until death"?
The marks upon your skin
Tell tales while envy
Mocks without remorse
And ties you up in knots.
One touch and I am in
A trance like state.
Entwinning our fates to another
The cost of our will now both bound to each other.
What was in your head
When you said
"until death"?
Your lies unfold
Like lines that were left
In turn and consequently
Told all.

While time waits for no man
I’ll be here in winter.
Tear down your baracades
so I may enter.
Your lips are warm
they comfort me.
Open up
and lets begin.
So I’ll lay on this
bed that I have made.
So soundly sleep
and whisper your name.
Oooooh you…you burn me up.
One touch and I am in
a trance like state.
Entwinning our fates to another
the cost of our will now both bound to each other.
What was in your head
when you said
“until death”?
The marks upon your skin
tell tales while envy
mocks without remorse
and ties you up in knots.
One touch and I am in

Entwinning our fates to another
the cost of our will now both bound to each other.
What was in your head

Your lies unfold

This song is so wonderful and relaxing but mostly just wonderfully relaxing.

Over the past few months I have been searching for truly beautiful music. What I did was look up all acts associated with Japanese post-rock band toe. This REALLY does not disappoint! Beautifully intricate melodies, musically emotive rhythm and brilliant lyrics. This is music.

His voice is a type that you'll grow to like more as you continue listening, my friend showed me this band and I chirped the voice right away, now I like it.

That's the best chorus i've ever heard in my life... "One touch and I am in a trance like state. Entwinning our fates to another the cost of our will now both bound to each other. What was in your head when you said "Until death?"
