No Growler music is in one category. They have versatility and always did. I like this and it will be a kick ass dance song when they do it live. Open your mind.
Just listen to the music, don't keep trying to compare it to the way they "used to be". They are trying out a new sound, and it is actually pretty refreshing if you give it an open mind.
I'm very glad they're trying a new sound. As great as they were you can only have so many songs with the exact same guitar effect before it gets stale. My only issue with this song is that it's not as unique as their other stuff, like this sounds like the kinda stuff I've been hearing on the radio for 15 years, but I really have to listen to the full album. This is still a good song, though.
If you're not bobbing your head to flow the vocals, tapping your feet to groove of that bass line, swaying to that rhythm, then you have never been a true Growlers fan and don't even deserve to appreciate this badassery. This sounds like the Growlers I've always loved.
Ok, this reminds me of when they dropped "Good advice". At first i thought what a horrible change, i hated that song. Then i listened to the whole "Chinese Fountain" album and was delighted. Fucking Growlers are always into new things, lets hear the full album before dropping any hate. These guys are amazing and we cant expect them to sound the same as the HUNG AT HEART days.
people complaining that is not the same growlers or different are such casual fans, bands change over time, just take a look at growlers are you in or out album and there last years gay thoughts the sound and style changes
m0bels all im saying people need to give there new album a chance i like it, just like many fans do, theres bearly two songs that thry have come out with so far there more to come, if your going to complain and say there not the same growlers, that there old suff was better your not really supporting the band and helping them grow, give it a chance
This is not a "change". This is a project with Julian from the Strokes. It's a departure, an experiment. It will change the band, yeah, but it's not like they are going to make City Club from now on.
after reading the comment section can I just say that people who miss the old growlers there is a reason why the old albums are still available for you to listen to. Learn the art of letting go.
New listener to this band and this is literally the most true. First time listened to it I was like 'yeah that's pretty alright' but now it's my go to song when doing art or just relaxing
everyone saying "that's not The Growlers", come on! Bands change sounds, and it's cool! They're evolving, trying new roads, and i think that's amazing. I really like this song, i personally can't stop listening to it! If you like the old-growlers' sound just keep listening to the old stuff and just support the band, damn!
Obviously it is a different sound from previous Growlers music, but give it a chance. And if you can't tell, Julian Casablancas of The Strokes helped produce this album. I love it!!
A great band is a band that evolves and changes while keeping their uniqueness of sound and melody, their addictive qualities. Been addicted to The Growlers since 2010, Still am.
I'm hoping this will grow on me, really liked the first song off City Club but this idk. I like how they're expanding and trying something new with their sound, who wants a band to keep doing the same old thing?! But I'm still relatively apprehensive about how I'll feel about this album.
+Pulchritudo humana very true, they've always been themselves and had their own unique style and sense which is one of the reasons people love them so!
Yes, I'm only a man Judgements of something ancient Clocking my time as finished The same is all replacements Ignorance is complacency Why are you purposely fading? No stand, no sit, no stopping Ripping through the neon prophecies Got let off by a ticket stub My time is fading fast Through your mouth and out yours' Say what? (Shine till the sun comes up) Come down (You oughta wash your hands and pray) For what? (Shaking hands, swapping dirty blood) Pass it round (You never do what you say) Say what? (Shine till the sun comes up) For now (You promise that you'll come around?) I'll be around So I fear, but I don't know what it is So I want, but I pretend I don't need So here's the pain of the stubbled lover's kiss I throw my pages all away like shaking wrists So shake me down Shake me up (shake me down, shake me down) So shake me down Shake me up (shake me down, shake me down) So shake me up Say what? (Shine till the sun comes up) Hey now (You oughta wash your hands and pray) For what? (Shaking hands, swapping dirty blood) Pass it round Say what? (Shine till the sun comes up) Come down (You promise that you'll come around?) I'll be around I tell me it ain't hard As I hold my breath thinking why Tell me to my beating heart That I know for sure Better than I can know for sure What it did My mistakes bend like payphone metal I never know just what will come As our [?] hands bind together River and me children Longer than a trillion Get what I am given, forever (So shake me up) Say what? (Shine till the sun comes up) Come down (You oughta wash your hands and pray) For what? (Shaking hands, swapping dirty blood) Pass it round (You never do what you say) Say what? (Shine till the sun comes up) For now (You promise that you'll come around?)
This song is so sick live, the whole crowd swaying and skanking. Beautiful women dancing on you, the smell of dank in the air. If you hate the new sound, lol be there for it live
I knew this band was special from the first time I heard them..They have balls !!! Change it up roll the dice.. Are you the same as you were 6 years ago ? I don't care if this album falls flat on its face.. Makes me like them more.. Who has more bombs than Neil young but it never stopped him....
I'm really glad I'm not a long term diehard Growlers fan, because I think this song and everything on the album is fucking phenomenal. Maybe if I had the predisposition of following the band for years I'd think differently like some people do lol.
Look, yeah it sounds different and they had a pop artist produce it. The essence of the band, though, is still there. It might take a few listens. Tbh I didn't really care for their earlier sound when I first heard it, but now I swear its some of the best I've ever heard. Put yourselves in their shoes, if you only lived for your art, wouldn't you want to see it to it's full potential?
I like it. Bands change, it happens. I know it sucks when a good band changes and you don't like them, but I always have to remember that they're just trying to test out new sounds and their old stuff will always be available. I'm glad they tried out a new sound to be honest, many of their songs sound the same. On another note the "shake me up, shake me down" part sounds extremely familiar.

I like this a lot! Much better than City Club. Definitely a completely new sound for them, but as long as there's great songs like this on the album, I'm all for it
good song, very good, but do not change their so particular and psychedelic style that makes them unique. Greetings'm your number one fan! if you have the opportunity to come to Chile.
i like this. its different. these boys may finally get some radio play with this album. shit evolves. if you dont like this and want some beach goth youre just living in a memory
They're evolving with or without you guys complaining that they don't sound the same. You have to listen to this without regarding their old stuff to appreciate it.
No Growler music is in one category. They have versatility and always did. I like this and it will be a kick ass dance song when they do it live. Open your mind.
when i first heard this song i was tripping balls and believe me i was in heaven
I was tripping balls when I first heard this song lmao
I was high af and i dont think this song ever sounded as good as it did then. You know what i mean
Cool story no one fucking asked
Just listen to the music, don't keep trying to compare it to the way they "used to be". They are trying out a new sound, and it is actually pretty refreshing if you give it an open mind.
Brotha-Man right!
Hell yeah this song has me groovin! Especially the last minute ! 😍
I'm very glad they're trying a new sound. As great as they were you can only have so many songs with the exact same guitar effect before it gets stale.
My only issue with this song is that it's not as unique as their other stuff, like this sounds like the kinda stuff I've been hearing on the radio for 15 years, but I really have to listen to the full album. This is still a good song, though.
new members new sound
Nothing is this funky and on the radio. You would never hear a voice this rough on the radio
I dig it. I like the old stuff too, but I love the evolution of this band's sound. They keepin' it real. Well done Mr. Casablancas.
If you're not bobbing your head to flow the vocals, tapping your feet to groove of that bass line, swaying to that rhythm, then you have never been a true Growlers fan and don't even deserve to appreciate this badassery. This sounds like the Growlers I've always loved.

These guys are amazing and we cant expect them to sound the same as the HUNG AT HEART days.
a shame people can't celebrate a band coming into their own and creating some really great music
people complaining that is not the same growlers or different are such casual fans, bands change over time, just take a look at growlers are you in or out album and there last years gay thoughts the sound and style changes
gay thoughts ep is a collection of songs from before they had a label, those songs were made before in or out.
m0bels all im saying people need to give there new album a chance i like it, just like many fans do, theres bearly two songs that thry have come out with so far there more to come, if your going to complain and say there not the same growlers, that there old suff was better your not really supporting the band and helping them grow, give it a chance
This is not a "change". This is a project with Julian from the Strokes. It's a departure, an experiment. It will change the band, yeah, but it's not like they are going to make City Club from now on.
not the same growlers? guess scott and stonio werent growlers then.... smh
after reading the comment section can I just say that people who miss the old growlers there is a reason why the old albums are still available for you to listen to. Learn the art of letting go.
Shake me up, Shake me down, Shake me down
Not a lot of people left around,
who knows how
MadWorldTV isn't that similar to a cage the elephant lyric
yea it is
Me
That's exactly what I was thinking of when I first heard this song
the more i listen the more it grows on me. the growlers have moved in a new direction and i'm liking it
its good. give it time people.
this is the future
+Felix Delgado this shit makes me wanna dance , we just have to understand that some people aren't as open minded.
agree the band has potential
love this direction
Agreed, first couple times I heard it I didn't like it at all but now I can't get enough
I dig it! I feel like it needs to time to grow on you, but it gets better each time I listen to it.
Exactly.
New listener to this band and this is literally the most true. First time listened to it I was like 'yeah that's pretty alright' but now it's my go to song when doing art or just relaxing
everyone saying "that's not The Growlers", come on! Bands change sounds, and it's cool! They're evolving, trying new roads, and i think that's amazing. I really like this song, i personally can't stop listening to it! If you like the old-growlers' sound just keep listening to the old stuff and just support the band, damn!
Apoc 2 💪💪
yo this new album is already sounding awesome.... can't wait to see you guys in Vegas
+Cristhian Ramirez yeah bro. I'm ready lol
This is bad ass. Very unique sounding... Can't wait to hear it live.
its just so hard to express how much i love this song
Obviously it is a different sound from previous Growlers music, but give it a chance. And if you can't tell, Julian Casablancas of The Strokes helped produce this album. I love it!!
I know I'm seven years late, but honestly city club fits in pretty well with all of their other albums.
We Growlers fans should be proud. Different can be good. I still like this one a lot, moves me more
A great band is a band that evolves and changes while keeping their uniqueness of sound and melody, their addictive qualities.
Been addicted to The Growlers since 2010, Still am.
love Brook's singing his voice is unique rythm in the most great singers like Bowie changed and changed and yet he is one of the greatest..
Im feeling this!! 👽
I feel like this album will be more groovy/funky .... very interesting .
YOOO THIS SHIT IS GONNA BE A BANGER LIVE. Fucking Dope
Dude you're awesome. And you're right
+DaBABYateMAdingo for real watch them beg the growlers to play this shit live. It's dope
Hell yeah it is! Gonna be grooving Oct 7th! I won't be on this planet for about two hours.
+HuBrIsRaDiO
Two hours? Try using harder drugs
+DaBABYateMAdingo who said anything about drugs? They are my drug.
Always gonna love the sound of anything ya'll release
I'm hoping this will grow on me, really liked the first song off City Club but this idk. I like how they're expanding and trying something new with their sound, who wants a band to keep doing the same old thing?! But I'm still relatively apprehensive about how I'll feel about this album.
The Growlers have the defense of never being steadfast to one sound or genre. Garage? Psyche? Surf? All of the above yet none.
+Pulchritudo humana very true, they've always been themselves and had their own unique style and sense which is one of the reasons people love them so!
This song is fucking great.
Yes, I'm only a man
Judgements of something ancient
Clocking my time as finished
The same is all replacements
Ignorance is complacency
Why are you purposely fading?
No stand, no sit, no stopping
Ripping through the neon prophecies
Got let off by a ticket stub
My time is fading fast
Through your mouth and out yours'
Say what?
(Shine till the sun comes up)
Come down
(You oughta wash your hands and pray)
For what?
(Shaking hands, swapping dirty blood)
Pass it round
(You never do what you say)
Say what?
(Shine till the sun comes up)
For now
(You promise that you'll come around?)
I'll be around
So I fear, but I don't know what it is
So I want, but I pretend I don't need
So here's the pain of the stubbled lover's kiss
I throw my pages all away like shaking wrists
So shake me down
Shake me up (shake me down, shake me down)
So shake me down
Shake me up (shake me down, shake me down)
So shake me up
Say what?
(Shine till the sun comes up)
Hey now
(You oughta wash your hands and pray)
For what?
(Shaking hands, swapping dirty blood)
Pass it round
Say what?
(Shine till the sun comes up)
Come down
(You promise that you'll come around?)
I'll be around
I tell me it ain't hard
As I hold my breath thinking why
Tell me to my beating heart
That I know for sure
Better than I can know for sure
What it did
My mistakes bend like payphone metal
I never know just what will come
As our [?] hands bind together
River and me children
Longer than a trillion
Get what I am given, forever
(So shake me up)
Say what?
(Shine till the sun comes up)
Come down
(You oughta wash your hands and pray)
For what?
(Shaking hands, swapping dirty blood)
Pass it round
(You never do what you say)
Say what?
(Shine till the sun comes up)
For now
(You promise that you'll come around?)

seeing them live this weekend! love the new and old sound. ♡
It's amazing and constantly stuck in my head! None of their albums truly have the same sound. That's what's so great! You don't know what to expect.
this is this that is that, this is natural! The Growlers great shit different.Still listening...gonna see them in Munich soon
the growlers working on the new sound. all any artist can do is put everything they like together in new ways and it always grows on you
That fucking guitar blow mind
This song is so sick live, the whole crowd swaying and skanking. Beautiful women dancing on you, the smell of dank in the air. If you hate the new sound, lol be there for it live
I knew this band was special from the first time I heard them..They have balls !!! Change it up roll the dice.. Are you the same as you were 6 years ago ? I don't care if this album falls flat on its face.. Makes me like them more.. Who has more bombs than Neil young but it never stopped him....
i like the new songs the growlers will always be one of my favorite bands
This song is the epitome of cool. Simply put!
I like it
I love the length of the song. Plus that little guitar towards the middle end. Awesome track. Can't wait for February to see los growlers:)
I saw them a few days ago in Portland and they were awesome!
I'm really glad I'm not a long term diehard Growlers fan, because I think this song and everything on the album is fucking phenomenal. Maybe if I had the predisposition of following the band for years I'd think differently like some people do lol.
This song is soooo badass😻
Look, yeah it sounds different and they had a pop artist produce it. The essence of the band, though, is still there. It might take a few listens.

Perfection
this new albums slowly growing on me cant wait ,hoping to be impressed
I like it. Bands change, it happens. I know it sucks when a good band changes and you don't like them, but I always have to remember that they're just trying to test out new sounds and their old stuff will always be available. I'm glad they tried out a new sound to be honest, many of their songs sound the same. On another note the "shake me up, shake me down" part sounds extremely familiar.
You're comment became irrelevant when you said many of their songs sound the same
such a groovy song
I love this song, it makes such a statement
this is the best album. never really cared about them until now
Instantly fell in love when I first heard this lmao
Still banging
City Club is fucking great
this is the best album yet. thanks cassablancas.
THis song bangs for sure
Choice Bro!! love it
Can't wait to see the Growlers in Boston in eight days!
I listened this on the subway, and instantly loved it. What a track!
Can’t wait to see you guys for both days here in Hollywood 🤟🏽🧡
Disregard the critics, this is the fucking shit.. Viva Los Growlers

I like this a lot! Much better than City Club. Definitely a completely new sound for them, but as long as there's great songs like this on the album, I'm all for it
The people that hate the growlers's new music arent true fans !!
Diooooos! Suena taaaaaan increible
La voz de Nielsen es maravillosa ♡
I like this. Thanks, Growlers!
