After a series of singles and EPs, electro-leaning indie folk quintet
Grizfolk finally deliver their full-length debut,
Waking Up the Giants. The band's uplifting mix of anthemic road-rock anthems and shimmering electronica is on full display on lead single "Bob Marley," while the slinky dancefloor jam "Troublemaker" shows their darker, more urban side. Led by Florida native
Adam Roth and Swedish multi-instrumentalists
Fredrick Eriksson and
Sebastian Fritze, the California-based band's aesthetic falls somewhere between
Lord Huron's high-desert expanse and
the Killers' jagged glitz. ~ Timothy Monger
