Drawing from late 60's Pink Floyd and 90's Chicago bands like Rex, Him, Sea and Cake and June of '44. Wow & Flutter takes cues from that and make it their own.

RESTOCK. Wow & Flutter core members Cord Amato, Jack Houston and Amy Turner have teamed up with Chris Larson and Donnie Machado again on this new collection of songs, their fourth release for Jealous Butcher Records. Bringing to mind Godspeed You Black Emperor! and June Of 44, Names alternates between the full, rich clarity of a rich string section and the brittle, almost gothic urgency of guitars.
