Heaters, previously known as Plantains, is a talented trio that combines garage rock with surf and psych. The band consists of Andrew Tamlyn, Nolan Krebs, and Joshua Korf - childhood friends who reunited in Grand Rapids, Michigan to embark on a musical journey together. Their unique sound draws inspiration from 60s garage rock while adding their own cosmic twists. With their catchy tunes and energetic live performances, Heaters have quickly gained recognition for their reverb-coated, fuzz-studded brand of music.

During their first year together, Heaters released several EPs and split records along with a 10" album. Their spacey and driving take on West Coast psych rock has garnered praise from critics. Pitchfork describes the band as "catchy and kinetic," highlighting their impeccable energy and knack for writing hooks.

Known for their constant output of mesmerizing music and captivating live shows, Heaters are continuously pushing boundaries in the genre. They are carving out something new while hitting the road to share their sonic creations with audiences around the world. Keep an ear out for this dynamic trio!

Latest release on Beyond Beyond Is Beyond by Heaters and entitled Matterhorn. Its a relentless pace, made all the more impressive not by the infrequency with which its met by Heaters peers, but rather by the lasting quality of each release. In this way, Matterhorn is more of the same - thirty-eight minutes of propulsive, precisely sculpted sonic signatures. In other crucial ways, however, Matterhorn represents massive change for Heaters: first, in the form of a largely revamped line-up, and second, in the form of an album whose wave crests above even the bands previous high-water marks of consistency. Short of attending group therapy together, its difficult to ascertain exactly what contributions these new sparks have contributed to Heaters overall sound, just as its impossible to dismiss how utterly ignited by change Matterhorn sounds as a result. If Baptistina showed a picture of a band attaining greater control over their quite-rideable waves of reverb and rhythm, Matterhorn is the master-class in its execution. Its a full-screen image of dawn, dusk and darkness, never scanned-and-panned, and never less than mesmerizing. At the risk of putting too fine a point on it, the landlocked levitation previously made possible via Heaters psycho-surf majesty is luminously leavened on Matterhorn, with the bright light of the jingle-jangle morning (which may or may not come following youbut will likely lead to repeat listens).
