Cool Ghouls’ “What a Dream I Had” sounds like The Beatles’ “Ticket to Ride”—a bit drugged and dragged through a mosh pit.
The San Francisco based psych rockers new album, A Swirling Fire Burning Through The Rhye, attempts to revitalize the city’s once prolific Haight-Ashbury sound with a little garage grit thrown in to contemporize things. Their sweet harmonies and luxurious grooves make for a pretty stimulating record and a fine follow-up to 2012’s limited cassette release, Allright.
If “What A Dream” wets your appetite for the Ghouls’ brand of amped up nostalgic rock, head over to their Bandcamp page and pre-order the full album.
