Southern California based beach goth artists, The Growlers, have officially released their already fifth studio album titled City Club. The new record is brought to us by Cult Records, a label founded by Julian Casablancas in 2009. As avid Growlers fans, it is with great excitement to present you an evolving new sound the group has brought to the table.
