Album Notes & Community Reviews

Marking his first major short-form release with his backing band, 'The Hunchback EP' represents a loud, feedback-heavy milestone in the discography of Kurt Vile & The Violators. The EP showcases a massive, guitar-driven collision of slacker rock, noise rock, and garage rock revival tempos. Driven by their raw, unpolished live energy and heavy fuzz-bass, the tracks capture an uncompromising, gritty, and highly energetic garage sound.
