Phantom Phuzz, the newest six song release from Cooler, comes as a follow up to their hard-hitting EP 1993 released last September. From beginning to end, it’s easy to hear growth in musicality from the local four-piece. The EP opens with a haunting post-rock influenced jam that does its job setting the tone for what follows.

But in contrast to them, it’s really nice to hear deliberately crisp vocals paired with all the fuzz.

The band is touring in support of their newest release Kamikaze out at the end of the month. Opening for them is Toronto heavindie trio The Dirty Nil along with locals Hundred Plus Club and 3 Hour Power Shower. Doors are at 7pm, and tickets are $13 at the door.
