The Ghost Wolves

In Ya Neck

Often pegged as a reverse White Stripes – guitarist Carley Wolf leading drummer Jonathan Konya – the Ghost Wolves' punk-blues more closely resembles Dax Riggs' short-lived Deadboy & the Elephantmen: swampy and primitive. Limited to 500 copies, this six-song EP works best when the two are seemingly at each other's throats, as in "Big Star" and rockabilly jive "Snake and Jake Shake." **.5
