Heaters Holy Water Pool album LP

From Grand Rapids, MI trio Heaters are getting ready to release their new platter of blazing psych, titled “Holy Water Pool”, September 25 via Beyond Beyond Is Beyond Recordings. The band haven’t shared any music from it yet but you can check out cover art and tracklist (and an older Heaters cut) below.
Heaters start their tour this weekend in NYC.
Heaters will also be back for 4 Knots Festival with Super Furry Animals, Stephen Malkmus & the Jicks, Mikal Cronin, Screaming Females,

The guys of Heaters, you’d think the three lanky psych rockers resided in Sunny California where bands like The Growlers, Shannon and the Clams, the Ty Segall Band have made psychedelia cool again, but this three-piece was born and bred in the snowy beaches of Michigan.

Guitarist Andrew Tamlyn, bassist Nolan Krebs, and drummer Joshua Korf formed the band back in 2013, and since then, they’ve released a handful of EPs – self-recorded in their homes – and their studio debut “Solstice” (Dizzybird Records). Aside from constantly laying down recordings, Heaters has also been touring non-stop, including frequent shows in Chicago. And just this month, Heaters also played Austin Psych Fest. With all that touring, the band has definitely been giving their van a run for its money. On their way to the Windy City, the Midwesterners broke down in Kansas City, but luckily they managed to get the van running, making it just in time, pulling up to the venue minutes before they were set to take the stage.

Fans and friends seemed relieved to see the trio loading in, and once Heaters got started, people instantly began moving, swaying to the fuzzy melodies of “Shump” andSanctuary Blues.” Heaters played the single, “Mean Green,” off their recent 7” via Beyond Beyond is Beyond Records.

 

 

If you’re into reverb, spaced out garage rock, and not really understanding what a song is about because you can’t quite hear the lyrics but you’re definitely vibing on the groove, then “Kamikaze” by Grand Rapids-based trio Heaters will certainly make your nipples rather erect. I mean, doesn’t that happen to you when you hear a song you really dig? Either way, we’ve had our eye on Heaters for minute and now they’re set to release Holy Water Pool—their debut LP out on 9.25 via Beyond Beyond is Beyond Records

If it takes any more than fifteen seconds to hear what “mean” means to the Michigan men who make up Heaters, pick up the needle and start again. “Mean Green” is the A-side track of the band’s new seven-inch single from Beyond Beyond is Beyond Records, presenting a surf-centric slab of sonic stomp that doubles as a definition of “mean.”

In the case of Heaters, “mean” is meant in the context that might be used to describe a 1970 GTO piloted by a jittery Warren Oates – not belligerent, but aggressive, blank-eyes staring at the horizon, fueled by dread and ready to accelerate into the nearest dangerous curve. What’s “green” about “Mean Green” then seems to be Heaters ability to glide into this path naturally, snaking absolutely without hesitation through the song’s tight turns in a way that’s insistent and invigorating.

The flipside of the single, “Levitate Thigh,” proves the band to be possessed by the power of rock and roll, initially bringing the tempo to a stuttering slow-roll, before Heaters are once again the willing captives of a Seeds-level web of sounds, guitar snarl, feedback and drums creating the trap in which the band has no chance – and no desire – to escape.

A trio from Grand Rapids, Michigan, HEATERS is Andrew Tamlyn, Nolan Krebs and Joshua Korf. 2014 saw HEATERS release their first EP, on Dizzybird Records. Their spacey, driving take on West Coast psych rock and ’60s garage makes for a kaleidoscopic, hip-shaking live set. 2015 should be a big year for HEATERS, as Brooklyn-based psych label Beyond Beyond is Beyond Records will be releasing a 7” single as well as the band’s debut album
