They are from the Bay area, but do not carry a Bay sound. Instead, they have a full blown 60\u2019s \u00a0rock revival vibe, and their influences include\u00a0Santana, The Grateful Dead, Jefferson Starship, Janis Joplin, and Quicksilver Messenger Service. Band members include Pat Thomas, Ryan Wong, Pat McDonald, Alex Fleshman. Critics have tried to categorize Cool Ghouls as alternative\/ indie, however, they dominate the stage with funk influence. Cool Ghouls falls somewhere in between being classified as a jam band, alternative, and rock, but definitely have a more retro sound than other bands. What\u2019s unique about Cool Ghouls is the different tones and qualities of the guitars and their tendency to dive into jams. One could say their sound doesn\u2019t feel like it\u2019s from this generation. Each song on the album has its own personality&#8211;definitely an album worth checking out.<br \/>\n<b><br \/>\nRecommended If You Like: Grateful Dead, The Troggs, The Monks, Sir Douglas Quintet, Santana, Jefferson Starship, Janis Joplin, Quicksilver Messenger Service<br \/>\nRecommended Tracks: 3 (Time Capsule), 4 (When You Were Gone), 8 (Brown Bag), 11 (Spectator)<br \/>\nDo Not Play: 1 (Animal Races)<br \/>\nWritten by Jessica Rosenberg on 09\/13\/2016 <\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cool Ghouls, a new band from San Francisco, CA, carry a sound like no other these days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":15729,"featured_media":49191,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[181],"tags":[5357,5356,5269],"class_list":["post-49190","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-rock-rotation","tag-animal-races","tag-cool-ghouls","tag-jessica-rosenberg"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Unknown1.jpeg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/49190","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/15729"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=49190"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/49190\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/49191"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=49190"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=49190"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=49190"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
