The Austin Chronicle is an independent, locally owned and operated alternative newsweekly that reflects the heart and soul of Austin, Texas.
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.”
