Indie Introspection Meets Serendipity in Goddamn Wolves' “Get Your Coat”

Raleigh indie rock trio Goddamn Wolves has released a new single titled “Get Your Coat,” a track that, while deceptively breezy, reveals the band’s layered creative history. Although the song feels like a fresh stylistic shift, with its jangly guitar riffs and unexpected piano melodies, it is actually an older composition by guitarist Chris. The new life of this single comes from a spontaneous moment: guest musician Dakota Proctor of Ooze Box, who was present during the recording session, contributed an impromptu piano performance that completely transformed the track's texture.

“Get Your Coat” exemplifies the band’s evolving yet grounded sound. While Goddamn Wolves have always drawn inspiration from alt-rock legends like the Pixies and The New Pornographers, this single, from their latest release, The DOOM EP, also reflects their admiration for contemporary acts such as The Beths and Bully. The song beautifully blends nostalgia with forward momentum, showcasing a band unafraid to reinterpret older ideas in innovative ways.

With its infectious energy and spontaneous brilliance, “Get Your Coat” is a must-listen for fans of raw, melodic indie rock. Goddamn Wolves demonstrate once again that true magic often lies in the unexpected.
