Vigilantes strive to play no-nonsense rock and roll with contagious choruses while avoiding the pressure of throw-back garage fads. To them, straight rock and roll doesn't need reinvention, it needs resurrection. Taking cues from early rock and roll pioneers, Vigilantes wrote, recorded, and released Howard City within months of becoming a band. -Michelle Tolodziecki
