The Ghost Wolves: “End Of It All”

By: Jack Anderson

Elden Ring‘s been out for a week, so you may think already have a certain type of spectral canines on your mind. The Ghost Wolves, however, aren’t playing any games. This Austin two-piece has more than a decade of experience under their fur, having toured across the globe and landed their original music on programs featured by Netflix, HBO, and MTV. Together, guitarist-keyboardist-vocalist Carley Wolf and drummer-singer Jonny Wolf have played more than a thousand shows in every venue imaginable, even in spooky spaces dungeons and caverns typically fit for a traditional spectral haunt. On Tuesday The Ghost Wolves shared two new singles off their upcoming third full-length Never Die, out June 3rd. It’s definitely a departure from their previous stuff defined by guitar distortion and subdued percussion. But this dark, heavy material still conjures the same gritty, blues-adjacent noise-rock spirit that makes The Ghost Wolves so great. You can hear some of the new tracks live at a free, all-ages show 9PM this Saturday at ABGB along with Veronica Peach and you can get into Never Die early with the eery, organ-driven bounce of “End Of It All”.

Dorio: “Plastic Heart” [Live In Studio 1A]

There’s something about every song by Austin’s Dorio that’s just sweet, sticky, and timeless. It simultaneously takes me to a certain sunny side of the 90’s; my old, cozy, West Campus apartment; and some of the best new music I’ve been listening to all year. It’s also something none of us around here can stop listening […]

Maria Taylor: “Never Thought I’d Feel New”

The feeling of being perpetually confined by your own thoughts is ugly and burdensome. When we root for ourselves and finally find ourselves on the other side of the chrysalis, life is colorful once again, and the feeling of mentally reentering and contributing to the world in a meaningful way is unparalled. This sentiment echoes […]
