Influences



Sounds Like

"Spectrophilia raises the bar for classic rock in the new millennium; now the band just has to get somebody to notice." - Jim Testa - JerseyBeat.com

"Lyrical and visual detail continue The Volunteers' occupation of some liminal space between sophomoric satire and talented homage." - Jon - MyCrazyMusicBlog.com

"Sincere moments are sparsely strewn between gravelly expressions of booze adulation. The Volunteers occupy an interesting space between idealized maturity and recklessness. They are a worthwhile slice of New York Americana." - FrederickFoxtrott.com


Volunteers Spectrophilia



"Spectrophilia explodes with energy, fervor, and delightfully sophmoric lyrics." - Eliza Czander - QuietColor.com

"The Volunteers' self-released, self-titled album serves up sleazy, indisputably wrong scuzz-rock along the lines of the album-opener "Whore”, which demands to know, "Whatever happened to sex and drugs? / I don't give a fuck about rock 'n' roll." The band's sensitive side comes out in "Homos," a mini-essay on evolution and political correctness, while "Blanket Of Drugs" is softly, sweetly pro-narcotic." - Noel Murray - The Onion

Volunteers Spectrophilia

Rock music with a bit of a roll.. yes, the Volunteers are served straight up in the single malt blend that is New York City. A quartet band led by singer Bones Howell, joined by guitarist John Cave, bassist Dave Smith, drummer Paul Cigolini, the Volunteers have toured North America, while gaining homegrown critical acclaim (High Times, The Onion, The Deli, Jersey Beat).

Volunteers recent album Spectrophilia, released September of 2008, was recorded with Producer Paul Mahajan (Yeah, Yeah, Yeahs, TV on the Radio, The National) at Monsterland Studios in Brooklyn, NYC.
