There’s long been a growl festering in the West, an earthen rumble fed by tectonic tension, acrid
smoke, and sun-parched air. The brew has boiled over lately, a pressure-cooked chaos that can
no longer be contained. The growl has grown to a howl.. the howl is at the door. Few are as
ready to meet the madness head on as Frankie and the Witch Fingers. On the upcoming ‘Data
Doom’ the band hurtles the listener head first into the wood-chipper of technological dystopia,
systemic rot, creeping fascism, the military-industrial profit mill, and a near-constant erosion of
humanity that peels away the soul bit by bit. With a fuse lit by these modern-day monstrosities
the band seeks to find salvation through a thousand watt wake-up of rock n’ roll exfoliation.


After tearing through the tender heart of the Midwest, Frankie and the Witch Fingers found
themselves clamped down on the fried edges of Los Angeles, carving out a niche that’s equal
parts molten tar pit teardown and cataclysmic careen. Following releases on Hypnotic Bridge,
Let’s Pretend, and Permanent, the band landed between the twin barbs of Greenway and The
Reverberation Appreciation Society, a perfect fit for their frenetic blend of rhythmic whiplash
and sonic soul shake. Anchored by songwriters Dylan Sizemore and Josh Menashe, the band has kept a rotating door of friends and collaborators moving through their midst over the past few years, coalescing post-pandemic into a symbiotic stage beast that’s become the beating heart of their new album, ‘Data Doom’. Bassist Nikki “Pickle” Smith and drummer Nick Aguilar have been road-hardened and readied over the last year, laying the groundwork for the new record’s 300 pounds of pummel and propulsion.


That heft was hurtled onto tape in the band’s Vernon, CA studio space. The locale let the city’s
grit creep into the crevices of their new record, a wild swing at the sternum that hits the listener
like an adrenaline shot to the heart. Wiping away the haze of stoned-ape psychedelics that
permeated their opus ‘Monsters Eating People Eating Monsters’… the band favors an asphalt
assault of rock, riff, and amphetamine rhythm. As they’ve wound out of the last phase, their
sound, over a series of singles, has begun to thicken and throb. It’s coalesced into a darker strain that ingests the explosive impulses of gas-crisis-era proto-punk, the rhythmic insistence of 70’s German Progressives, and the elasticity of funk fusionists alike. They’ve welded their arsenal of influences to a chassis of nail-bitten bombast that drives ‘Data Doom’ into the midst of the maelstrom.


The band has shared bills with Kikagaku Moyo, Ty Segall, Oh Sees, Cheap Trick, and ZZ Top,
churning their stage-side scorch into household recognition — burning through a barrage of
multicolored vinyl pressings and sparring with indie heavyweights for Billboard chart positions.
‘Data Doom’ looks to cement that status, a sinewy slab cut on the stone of social collapse and
licking the blade in anticipation of what’s to come. “Never name the darkness itself,“ intones
Sizemore, but the darkness is already here, embedded in every moment, inextricable from the
capital, sabbatical, sustenance, and solace of the modern age. ‘Data Doom’ is the elixir and the
exorcism, it’s the reformation rendered in rock ’n roll.
