Records of the Year. Selected by: Gnarwolves
After the impressing EP marathon of the past years and a spontaneus detour into the business of brewing, Gnarwolves – probably the most outstanding hit machine on the gateway from pop to skate punk – let themselves be talked around to releasing their first full lenght. In our interview during their visit to Vienna, the Brighton three piece recommended us some records for the Heavy Pop advent calendar.
Thom:
The Menzingers – ‚[amazon_link id=“B00ILKGB1I“ target=“_blank“ ]Rented World[/amazon_link]‘
I really like that record. I listened to it a million times since it came out. It’s like the old records – recorded really well.
Pup – ‚[amazon_link id=“B00I3I0A8I“ target=“_blank“ ]Pup[/amazon_link]‘
It’s so good. The guitar lines and the melodies are so tight and have so much energy. They are an awesome band.
Charlie:
Prawn – ‚[amazon_link id=“B00L4OL8A2″ target=“_blank“ ]Kingfisher[/amazon_link]‘
By far my favourite record of the year. It’s just great. It’s such a great indie-emo record with a kind of American Football vibe. They got trumpets and shit – it’s fucking rat. It’s crazy, but it works. They are so good live and make it sound even better live as well, which is why they are such a good band. I think that’s the most important thing about a band. If you got a good record – fair play, but if you can’t play it live – fuck off.
Nothing – ‚[amazon_link id=“B00HW3EUSQ“ target=“_blank“ ]Guilty of Everything[/amazon_link]
It’s a really cool record. It’s really interesting for me, because I listen to bands like My Bloody Valentine, Slowdive – a lot of old bands. This is kind of a slow-rise that has always been there of shoegazy, noisy bands. They just put out a really cool record. Really good to hear.

It is like an eight-track EP. It’s fast, like skate punk and kind of a revival of Striking Distance and bands from Revelation Records. It also reminds me of the rising of UK bands like Flex. It’s good.
