A review of @knolacollective’s new record, “To The Rhythm”

by Matty Weaver

I meet up with some old friends. It’s raining. It’s been years and time has left its mark on all of our faces. I’m not sure how to act, so I just do me: the new me, the one I saw myself becoming back then, give or take a few degrees of stormy gray morality.

It felt a lot like going back in time, like seeing the same old same old with newer eyes, like taking off rose-tinted glasses and smiling, staring.

Roll credits.

We have been busy! Here’s a photo from our show with Tigers Jaw the other night. It was the biggest crowd we’ve played to so far, and it was one of the most fun sets I’ve ever played. Our next show isn’t until earl December with our true pals in XERXES from Louisville, and Ratboys from Chicago. All of our past and upcoming shows are listed on our shows page.

ONWARD! Help us by buying one of our last shirts/tapes? We have some exciting things planned and could use some help.

Oliver Houston: Fun, emotive, indie-punk music with attitude

The DIY Grand Rapids foursome has operated under the radar for several months, but they're a name that West Michigan fans are likely to soon know better.
