Our Midnight Werewolf Records triple threat continues with its second installment, Charles. Charles is probably the best thing out of New Hampshire since Sarah Silverman and Canobie Lake Park. Clearly my knowledge of New Hampshire is limited, but after hearing the new Charles single, I want to know everything about this small battleground state. Mathy guitars fight against a driving drum and bass section in their first single “Hot Wax,” creating a beautiful emo cacophony.

Some fun facts about Charles:

  1. They are named after a dead cat.
  2. They have three vocalists.
  3. They love you.

This will be Charles’ first “proper” release, a self-titled EP, out 2/2 on Midnight Werewolf Records. You can pre-order it here and stream “Hot Wax” below.
