This is clearly a band to watch for fans of the aforementioned Soundgarden, as well as Wolfmother and Queens of the Stone Age.” Hardrock Nights says of singer Br
EP TRACK LISTING:andon Yeagley, “Watching him is exhausting, and I honestly have no idea how his head hasn’t ripped off of his shoulders. I don’t know what else to tell you except that Crobot is just killer.”
