Gossip Wolf loved grungy stoner-metal band Alma Negra, but alas, they played what turned out to be their last show in 2015. Singer-guitarist Erin Page—who also runs print-art operation Kill Hatsumomo—says her new band, Reivers, arose “after several lineup changes and my desire, along with my copilot, guitarist Greg Hamilton, to take Alma Negra in a slightly different direction.” Joining Page and Hamilton in Reivers are drummer Madison Maloof and bassist Tim Preciado; the name, says Page, refers to the Scottish border clans of her ancestry, “known as gypsies, robbers, and thieves and damned by the church.” Last week on Bandcamp, Reivers posted “Lucky Man,” where Page’s authoritative wail pushes through a flood of swaggering, fuzzy guitar. Reivers debut onstage at LiveWire Lounge on Saturday, October 21, with Arriver, Witchcryer, and Bible of the Devil.
