The Growlers have a certain grime about them that is completely irresistible. They're like the aural equivalent of A Clockwork Orange-they leave you in a confused disarray, slightly appalled, but mostly pleased. Combining the winning voodoo charms of a heavy Doors influence with a thoroughly modern fuck-the-world attitude, The Growlers impeccable debut album Are You In Or Out will surely enchant as you slowly fall into the dizzying depths of the intoxicating seasaw guitars, the I-really-don’t-care vocals and the hum drum bass lines. The band, which hails from Costa Mesa, has a heavy drone not unlike a hangover before the obligatory caffeine binge, but it’s satisfying somehow. The super-lo fi songs are adventurous, like taking a bottle of tequila into some uncharted jungle. Take em out for a ride, you won’t be disappointed.
