Guantanamo Baywatch’s jungle-juice-fueled beach party hasn’t been heard on a full-length album since 2012’s campy, gloriously scuzzy Chest Crawl, but the band entered the studio to record its next album—slated for release in early 2015—at the end of June. The as-yet-untitled album will feature the band becoming more comfortable in its own skin. “I remember listening to the [Chest Crawl] mixes and being like, ‘Oh, I don’t like my voice,’ or something like that, so we’d make it quieter or add more reverb than needed,” Powell says. “So I think that now it’s like, ‘Let’s just be confident about it and make the fidelity higher so people can really hear it.’ ” (Kolbie Stonehocker, City Weekly)
