Bob Irwin & The Pluto Walkers "Joker's Wild" 2011 - 7"/45rpm + "Coffin Dragger" 2013 - 7"/45rpm

Backed by his New York pals, the Pluto Walkers, Irwin digs deeply into the reverb-laced, big-guitar universe of fretboard wizards like the Ventures, Al Caiola and Billy Strange, and comes up with the twang-filled goods...
...It's a magical sound: haunting music just crying out to be used in silver-screen indie-films or during crucial moments of captivating TV blockbusters everyone will be talking about tomorrow morning around the water cooler. Get on board early, so you can say after it happens: "I knew these guys were going to be huge!" Because you'll be absolutely right. - Jud Cost, Magnet magazine

"Coffin Dragger" 2013 - 7"/45rpm
Think the true spirit and sound of the '60s exists only in the ring-worn covers and greyed out grooves of your discs from 1967?!? "Coffin Dragger," is as perfect an encapsulation of a lost era as you will find–a stomping, fuzztone-infected tribute to the legendary biker film soundtracks of decades past, recorded with the same kinds of techniques and energy as the much-coveted originals.
"Arabesque" is an audio voyage into a kind of other world where Henry Mancini and Chocolate Watch Band might've made magic music together in a garage, combining a brilliant melody with a snarling, complex and distorted arrangement, prominently featuring layers of fuzz and a vintage Ace Tone Top-5 keyboard.- Jud Cost, Magnet magazine
