Unpretentious and sincere, the raw quality of their sound is endearing\u2014Poolgirl trades seriousness in their performance for the raucous fanfare of youth. They inhabit a sonic space previously reserved for suburban teenage boys.

The roiling, grimy bass propelling them ever forward into their final song, and in true garage rock fashion, they disappear into the night like teenagers fleeing the scene of an illicit houseshow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/panm360.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/IMG_9089-pg-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-144248\" srcset=\"https:\/\/panm360.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/IMG_9089-pg-scaled.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/panm360.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/IMG_9089-pg-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/panm360.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/IMG_9089-pg-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/panm360.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/IMG_9089-pg-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Montreal garage rock outfit Poolgirl makes their FME debut to an enthusiastic crowd huddled around the stage.
