There was a point in time before everything fit into neat subgenres, a period when rock music and the nascent punk scene were still discovering their sound and anything seemed possible. Looking back it’s hard to pinpoint the exact moment when these two genres converged but if you had to sum it up sonically it would probably sound a lot like the Riverboat Gamblers’ latest album The Wolf You Feed.

The Riverboat Gamblers is a punk rock band originally from Denton, Texas but now residing in Austin, Texas. The band currently consists of Mike Wiebe, Fadi El-Assad, Rob Marchant and Ian MacDougall, and are currently signed to Volcom Entertainment.
