WOLF!, the treasured Brooklyn-based guitarist Scott Metzger‘s “Telecaster rock trio” with bassist Jon Shaw and drummer Taylor Floreth, returns after a six year hiatus with a new EP, Adult Entertainment, to be released via Royal Potato Family on October 28. Sounding like the love child of Pulp Fiction and The Endless Summer running off together under a full moon, WOLF!’s greasy instrumental rumblings weave together elements of surf, rockabilly, boogaloo and more into delectable, bite-sized musical nuggets. As has been WOLF!’s modus operandi since forming in 2014, tone, touch and taste are always front and center. As is the case on the six track collection’s first single, “Ratso,” out today on all streaming platforms (listen below…)
Recorded at Restoration Sound in Brooklyn, NY and mixed by Chris Connors, Adult Entertainment refines WOLF!’s distinct approach heard on its first two releases with songs like “Ratso” and “Patty Cake,” but expands the concept with “Hey Francis,” a sub-octave guitar rock gem underpinned by a clave rhythm, the lilting exotica of “Hawaiian Shirt” featuring Marco Benevento on Farfisa organ and the jaunty Gabor Szabo-meets-Bill Frisell set closer “Cottonmouth.” The EP will be unveiled with four singles over the coming weeks leading up through its release.
