Crocodiles

Add Date: April 28

Artist: Crocodiles

Album: Summer of Hate

Label: Fat Possum

Genre: Rock, indie rock

Comments: No Age's Dean Spunt propelled Crocodiles into the limelight by calling their stuff "real good kinda early eighties electro punk pop" on Stereogum. "It is super catchy," Spunt added. The weekly Seattle Stranger describes Summer of Hate as "wobbly, woozy indie-pop/punk marked by steady rocking (drum-machine?) rhythms, waves of feedback, and sunlit shafts of surfy guitar fuzz." Fans of No Age, Abe Vigoda, Vivian Girls, the Jesus & Mary Chain and Fat Possum labelmate Wavves will find something to enjoy on this San Diego duo's debut. Start with "Soft Skull (In My Room)."
