Crocodiles Artist Snapshot:

San Diego's Crocodiles are a duo comprising Charles Rowland on guitar and synth and Brandon Welchez on programming and vocals. The two play feedback-drenched indie rock that conjures the ghost of Jesus and Mary Chain. Song titles like "I Wanna Kill" and "Summer of Hate" belie the sweet pop melodies and enticing, noise-enriched punk-pop ethos that makes up the band's aesthetic. A series of 7-inch singles preceded a deal with Fat Possum Records, which released the group's debut full-length, SUMMER OF HATE, in 2009.

Review

Rolling Stone (p.66) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "[T]here's a thrilling free play in the duo's wildly distorted, trippy hook fetishism..."
Spin (p.90) - "[O]ver 34 irresistible minutes, SUMMER OF HATE has as many barbed, house-party hooks as nihilistic blasts..."

Title Note

Crocodiles: Charles Rowell, Brandon Welchez.

You might feel the need to check the passports of Californian duo Crocodiles while listening to their debut album, SUMMER OF HATE, as their sound owes a significant debt to '80s U.K. post-punk, particularly the pop-wrapped-in-fuzz sound of the Jesus & Mary Chain. Electronics play a part too, though, and there's a bit of Suicide in the buzzing synth grooves that throb insistently beneath the feedback howls, distortion-laden riffs, and hazy vocals of Crocodiles.
