Yowler is the side-project of Maryn Jones, known otherwise as the pop-punk guitarist from Columbus Ohio’s All Dogs. Though Yowler is a dramatic step away from All Dogs, Jones’s heartfelt croon remains. Aside from the ghostly reverb, “7 Towers” is as stripped-down as it gets. While hypnotic arpeggios repeat down the frets, Jones’s vocals overlap on themselves in harmonies that are deeply haunting. Lulling yet portentous, “7 Towers” moves at the creeping speed of a film score that sticks with you long after the movie ends. Yowler’s debut tape The Offer drops March 10 via Double Double Whammy.
