YAWPERS
Today Denver’s The Yawpers released a new song “Burdens” from their forthcoming label debut American Man(out on 10/30), via Rolling Stone Country/Rolling Stone.
The Yawpers craft tunes that are engrossed in creative context. Some might recall edges of the mid-1900s Delta blues, but only if those lived-in riffs were played by the MC5, broadcast through booming stadium speakers and drenched with pounds of fuzzy distortion and full-throttled punk rock energy. They conduct parallel frequencies with the ferocious and raw proletarian roots of Uncle Tupelo, the burning-hot thrashings and cavernous sonic space of Hot Snakes, and mix in derisive scrutiny that brings to mind Ween or the Minutemen.
The band is currently on tour and, if you’re lucky, will soon play a town near you. See below for full list of tour dates.
