Drakulas - Fashion Forward
Fashion Forward is taken from the as yet untitled album by Drakulas, which will surface sometime in ealry next year, on Dine Alone Records. This video was directed and edited by Vanessa Pla and stars John Buseman, Hentai and Ryan Cownie.

Drakulas - Raw Wave LP (Dirt Nap Records)
Drakulas are the latest band of the prolific Mike Wiebe, who you might remember from such bands as Ghost Knife, High Tension Wires, or most notably Riverboat Gamblers. This time around, "Rookie Sensation" Mike Wiebe teams up Zach Blair (Rise Against, Hagfish) to bring us a throwback, yet still fresh sounding, new take on a punk band.
The interesting thing about Drakulas, is that all of their songs are story driven, rather than the emotional heart-on-sleeve tunes that I love oh-so much. There are songs about people (Sonny Tzu, Stepping on Glass), places (Neon Town, Venus Retreat), and even things (VHS, Beta Max) and all work together to paint a picture of a dystopian future. It reminds me of A Clockwork Orange in a way.
It's a record that after a few spins, it keeps playing over and over again in my head days later. Personally, I find the B-side has more of my favorite songs of the album, songs such as: Neon Town, VHS, and Stepping on Glass. The A-side has some pretty rad tunes as well. My personal favorites from that side are Beta Max and Headphones-Slit Throats.
I haven't seen too many reviews or hype for this record online, and that's a shame. Definitely overlooked. I'm pretty stoked on this record and look forward to hearing more Drakulas. In a Noisey interview, Mike Wiebe did say they were going to be putting out a single, but nothing else has really been announced.
House Of Vans at Mohawk: DrakulasÂ
If Riverboat Gamblers and Rise Against were to have a cool, garage punk baby, you could bet it would sound a lot like Austin-based rockers, Drakulas. This quartet nailed their SXSW performance yesterday as they took to the Mohawk stage with high energy, and new songs. Check out some of our favorite moments from the set.Â
