New Music From The Inbox: Pet Sun, Cool Ghouls, Knox Hamilton, Half-Truth, Run River North
By: Juliette Jagger
Artist: Pet Sun “Gimme Your Soul”
Album: Feel Like I’m Going Away EP
Blending raucous, psychedelic garage rock with a bit of Brit-pop for good measure, “Gimme Your Soul” from Hamilton’s Pet Sun is loud, rowdy and straight to the point.

Artist: Cool Ghouls “And It Grows”
Album: A Swirling Fire Burning Through The Rye
Stacked with loud guitars, acidic riffs, and echoing three-part harmonies, San Francisco’s Cool Ghouls do as much justice to garage-psych as they do dreamy 60’s pop vocals.
