Laura McCullough Unleashes a Gritty Rock Collaboration on “Viva El Monstro”

The collaboration behind “Viva El Monstro” b/w “Others” brings an exciting meeting of alternative rock personalities, with North Carolina's It’s Snakes and Goddamn Wolves combining their creative energies. “Viva El Monstro” stands out through its distinctive vocal arrangement, with Darrin Gray stepping forward on vocals and lyrics while the band's guitar-driven identity takes shape around him. Meanwhile, “Others” offers a riff-focused alternative, drawing inspiration from the raw spirit of classic garage rock. Together, the two tracks celebrate musical experimentation, genuine collaboration, and the kind of independent rock spirit that refuses to become predictable.
