The Goddamn Gallows - The Maker

Review by Toni Lorente

The Maker by The Goddamn Gallows: A Wild Ride Through Folk Rock and Psychobilly Chaos If you’re into music that feels like a barroom brawl broke out in the middle of a hoedown, The Maker by The Goddamn Gallows is your jam. Released in 2015 on Crazy Love Records and Farmageddon Records, this album smashes together folk rock, punk, and psychobilly with all the grace of a drunk cowboy trying to two-step. And honestly? It works. Let’s talk about "Howlin’ Wind" for a sec. This track hits hard right off the bat—it’s got this raw, gritty energy that grabs you by the collar and doesn’t let go. Joe Perreze’s vocals are equal parts snarl and soul, while Jayke Orvis’s mandolin adds this eerie twang that makes it feel like something straight out of an old Western nightmare. You can almost picture tumbleweeds rolling through abandoned streets as the band lays down their chaos. It sticks with you because it’s messy, loud, and unapologetically real—like life itself but with better banjo solos. Then there's “Demon in the Night,” which slaps harder than a wasp at a picnic. With Fishgutzzz thumping away on double bass and Mikey Classic shredding guitar riffs like he’s running from the law, this song is pure fire. It’s one of those tracks where you don’t know whether to mosh or cry—but either way, you’re feeling something. The lyrics have this dark poetry vibe, like someone scribbled them on the back of a whiskey-soaked napkin after too many late nights staring into the void. It’s haunting yet oddly comforting, kinda like finding $20 in your pocket when you thought you were broke. What really ties everything together is the production. Andy Gibson did a killer job recording and mixing this beast, capturing every creak, clang, and howl without losing the live-show grit. And kudos to TV’s Avery, who seems to be handling half the instruments (accordion? washboard? drums?!), proving once again that multitasking musicians are basically wizards. But here’s the thing—this isn’t just another album full of catchy tunes and clever credits. Listening to The Maker, you get the sense these guys aren’t chasing trends or trying to impress critics. They’re making exactly the kind of music they wanna make, consequences be damned. Sure, some tracks might blur together if you’re not paying attention, but isn’t that part of the charm? Like flipping through an old photo album, each song has its own quirks and memories attached. So yeah, give The Maker a spin if you’re ready to trade boring playlists for something wilder. Just don’t blame me if you find yourself humming psychobilly anthems while stuck in traffic. Oh, and fun fact: rumor has it the artwork was designed by the same guy singing lead vocals. If that ain’t dedication, I dunno what is. Final thought? Life’s short. Turn up the volume, grab a banjo, and maybe learn how to play the washboard. Who knows—you could be the next accidental rockstar.

About The Goddamn Gallows

Spit from the heart of America's Rust Belt, arising from a night of flophouse violence. Drifting across the states, they cemented their sound in Portland, OR and later in Los Angeles, CA, where they lived in abandoned buildings, squatter camps, storage units and shoebox apartments. In 2007, they left everything behind and spent the next 4 years living out of whatever vehicle would get them to the next town. Building upon their original sound of twanged-out, punk rock gutterbilly (Life of Sin 2004 and Gutterbillyblues 2007), they began picking up stray musicians along the way and adding to their sound; washboard, accordion, mandolin and banjo (Ghost of the Rails 2009 and 7 Devils 2011) creating a sound referred to as "hobocore

Interesting fact about Album

Here’s a fun fact: The album *The Maker* by The Goddamn Gallows is like a one-man-band showcase. TV’s Avery plays four instruments—accordion, drums, piano, and washboard—all by himself! And if that wasn’t enough multitasking, Joe Perreze handles vocals, banjo, and even artwork design. It’s wild how much talent can come from just a few people. Punk, folk rock, and psychobilly collide in this gritty masterpiece released in 2015 across Germany and the US.

i grew up with em. This songs about John Debour in Detroit. He scrapped the blind school and black child and family institute in Lansing Mi. In Black Child he found ancient blue prints and a super old cops uniform.
