Dire Wolves :: Easy Portals: "Gathering for the first time since their 2019 European tour, the fall 2022 Dire Wolves sessions in Oakland apparently yielded a bounty of new material, the first taste of which was on full display with the engrossing Easy Portals. Across four tracks ranging from just under five minutes to just over seventeen, Jeffrey Alexander & co. journey through earthy, sprawling psychedelic rock and brooding, experimental freak folk. Marina Lazzara’s warped, nocturnal vocals haunt the grooves while Ajrun Mendiratta’s violin, Taralie Peterson’s saxophone, J. Lee’s farfisa organ, Sheila Bosco’s percussion, Brian Lucas’ bass, and Alexander’s guitar meld into an ever-shifting prism of chugging, weeping, and, yes, howling improvisation."
AQUARIUM DRUNKARD - BEST OF 2023
"(Dire Wolves) burrows into the warrens left vacant by Trad, Gras, Düül, & Vuh, once again picking up the pastoral prog mantle as modern heirs apparent. DWLVS vision of pastoral prog isn’t verdant, but rather desolate, scarred, with wind whipping across fields picked clean. Strange magics mix with cinder and smoke on Easy Portals. The band leaves a few crop circles in the mind, scrawled with the signature of the Just Exactly Perfect Sisters Band."
