For their debut LP, Brooklyn’s Graveyard Lovers have grabbed the spirit of rock ‘n roll by the throat and channeled a barrage of gritty, heavy blues riffs through a groove-rich spectrum inhabited by the likes of Jack White and Band of Skulls. Comprised of Zach Reynolds (guitar, vocals), Tricia Purvis (drums), and Orion Wainer (bass), the three intertwine immersive, dark melodies and passionate garage-blast promise on the new album Dreamers – and CraveOnline is proud to exclusively premiere the full album ahead of its Sept. 17 release.
Graveyard Lovers explore a dynamic spectrum with refreshing vigor on Dreamers, an evolution from their 2011 self-titled EP debut. Recorded at Will Benoit’s Radar Studios, the release is a new voice among familiar styles, a torch carried without the pressure of legacy – yet. When the slow build of “From My Window” finally bursts, it’s as if the best parts of the Saddle Creek family spent a Summer with the Pixies and burned their White Stripes records in a distancing ritual that only deepened the connection to some of the most viscerally passionate sounds of our time. “Nameless” is an impossibly catchy indie-scuzz jam that begs for volume.
