‘Animalistic’ fans on stage with the Growlers in Paredes de Coura – Blitz

<- Begin st_tag_body -> It’s kind of retro dance, rock melodies of early 60s with the harshness of the garage served with an almost sleepy negligence by a little band given artifacts and rock’n’roll poses. The Growlers, California sound to a surf-pop band of 1962 slightly drunk and drugged. Interestingly the first minute, something saturating the end of an hour.

The result alternates between decorum Prom 1961/62 (but with letters acidic) and the band that failed by a whisker to qualify for the final of the yé-yé contest. The time and the size of the stage maybe asked a band able to move more public than the inveterate front row, from which sprang the stage some fans dressed as animals – including a dapper pair of crocodiles (plunge after all, with swing, from the stage to the audience).

In the end, something dragged, Paredes de Coura applauded, sympathetically, but awaits other protagonists.
