Jan 2014 "Back To Love"

The Morlocks are one of the most mysterious, highly respected, American garage punk bands to ever grace the scene. Originally hailing from San Diego California, The Morlocks recapture the sounds and feel of early era Stones, The Kinks and Pretty Things. The band has built a massive, loyal fan base by touring extensively non-stop both here and abroad. From dive bars to outdoor European festivals, The Morlocks have shared many stages with the likes of The Cult, The Stooges, BRMC, The Hives, and many more.

As a follow up to their previous album, “Easy Listening For The Underachiever”, The Morlocks present “Play Chess”. Paying homage to the legendary Chess Records label “Play Chess” includes twelve songs that helped shape the beginnings of Rock & Roll. Classic songs by Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley, Muddy Waters, Howlin’ Wolf, and Sonny Boy Williamson, performed in true American garage rock fashion!

Produced by Michael Patterson (Beck, BRMC, Duran Duran, Smashing Pumpkins), “Play Chess” was recorded entirely live at The Bank (White Stripes, Beck, Charlotte Gainsbourg) in Los Angeles California using all vintage gear.

Other music by The Morlocks can be heard in various film, TV, and commercial productions, including TGI Fridays, Knight Rider, HBO, and FOX.
