Crocodiles


...we came across Californians Crocodiles a few weeks ago thanks to Stereogum and we've been digging it ever since. Yeah sure, the VU/Jesus and Mary Chain thing is there, but much like their buddies in No Age and Wavves, they're taking the trip to a different place. And besides, the raw materials are still viable: the big beat; the gnarly guitar hooks; the deadpan vocals. Yep, they still get us going...

...Their debut Summer of Hate is out on Fat Possum April 28...
