Tracklist

With vivid lyrics that evoke the run-down taverns, bowling alleys, and seedy nighttime streets of a bygone Midwestern city, Flashlight Faces deliver driving roots rock that carries listeners down the haunted byways of our world. Their music harkens back to a time when songs were made by real people. No sequencers, no AI, just the beautiful and sometimes mysterious power of humanity coming at you through a stereo channel. With catchy hooks, intricate riffs, and a tight organic sound honed by live performances in the Atlanta rock scene, Flashlight Faces carry on the tradition of songwriting-based rock and roll, forging a sound that simultaneously calls up the past and confronts our disquieting present. Flashlight Faces are Paul Buchholz (vocals, guitar, songwriting), Greg Zinman (guitar), Ryan Dawe (keyboards), Joe Binns (drums), and John Ballam (bass). Their new EP Under the Hammer was recorded in May 2025 at Maze Studio in Atlanta, and will appear on vinyl with Echo Base.
