via Album Review: GETAWAY VAN Self Titled
“Getaway Van is a very talented band with a variety of musical styles that captures the attention of many musical tastes. These guys are good for any sort of party setting. Think warm summer nights, cold drinks and good company.”
Man, never thought I’d find a band that bridges the gap between Fu Manchu stoner grooves and CANCON radio rock like this.

Vancouver’s GETAWAY VAN Premiere Debut Self-Titled Album Stream via Stoned Meadow of Doom
Self Titled Debut Out Feb 23rd
New to the Vancouver rock scene, GETAWAY VAN has been manoeuvering through venues to bring their slightly out of control punky blues stoner fuzz rock to entertained audiences for the past year. Collectively, the band shares a broad taste in music and using that to their advantage it’s translated into a record full of different styles and influences that they are gearing up to release on February 23, 2019.
But before the album officially runs loose, the band has teamed up with Youtube channel Stoned Meadow of Doom for the premiere of the album’s full stream.
The band adds:
“Welcome to the world of Getaway Van. This is our debut full-length, self-titled album. This is something that we are all really proud of. Something that all four of us have seen coming for the better part of a year and a half. Now that it’s here, we are stoked to share it with everyone. You’ll be able to pick out basically every sub-genre that’s been derived from rock in this album, with lyrical content that spans from self-loathing and depression, to love, to serial killers, to cars. We really hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed recording it! (And as much as we REALLY enjoy playing it). Thanks for listening.”

GETAWAY VAN‘s self-titled debut album follows the band’s two 2018 released EPs, ‘Brokedown’ and ‘Burnouts’.

“Continuing in the same vein of Truckfighters-esque stoner rock heard on January’s Burnouts EP, we are treated to a much fuller sound on this release… It’s meatier, it’s harder, it’s heavier. If that sounds a bit pornographic, you’re not far off, because this is a dirty record — full of fuzz and viscera.” – Vancity Rockers

Follow Vancouver’s GETAWAY VAN With Their New Single “Follow Me”
Self Titled Debut Out Feb 23rd
New to the Vancouver rock scene, GETAWAY VAN has been maneuvering through venues to bring their slightly out of control punky blues stoner fuzz rock to entertained audiences for the past year. Collectively, the band shares a broad taste in music and using that to their advantage it’s translated into a record full of different styles and influences that they are gearing up to release on February 23, 2019, which features their latest single and lyric video ‘Follow Me’.
The band explains the track:
“This dirty little, Alice In Chainsy romp is one that’ll get under your skin, and you’ll find yourself humming in the shower. ‘Follow Me’ is a song from the point of view of a sadistic murderer. It’s low and slow and it’ll get people moving, and feeling some kinda way, and sooner or later you won’t be able to help yourself… You’ll follow…”
