About Stagger

A dogged touring regimen has made The Grogans a rewardingly raucous presence on the Melbourne trio’s fifth album, which also taps into a newfound psychedelic side. Opener “Oh Boy” cranks up the reverb and distortion alongside some falsetto and harmonica, and “Social Cue” veers into sparky garage rock with a tangled guitar solo to boot. Fans of The Rubens and The Black Keys should appreciate the band’s darker, bluesier turns, and singer/guitarist Quin Grunden moves comfortably from bratty attitude (“Come Up (Goes Down)”) to laidback romance (“Have a Little Dream”). As for the more prominent psych forays, “Roundabout” is especially heady and locked-in, befitting its lyrical themes about being mired in repetition. Yet the three-piece can also strip everything right back for “In My Heart,” a tiptoeing love song that features breezy whistling, twinkling organ, and faint twinges of steel guitar. For a band that logs more hours on the road than most and releases its records via its own in-house label, Stagger feels like the next step toward The Grogans forging their own future.
