Mikal Cronin's a busy guy. Last year, the young west coast marvel released one of ET's favorite albums of the year via his sharply melodic self-titled debut. In 2012, Cronin has already released one 7" via Goner Records with a second on the way next month: a split with King Khan & The Shrines for Bruise Cruise .

King Khan (aka Canadian garage rocker Arish Ahmad Khan) has been around the block once or twice. Between fronting King Khan and the Shrines and The King Khan & BBQ show, not to mention being a member of The Almighty Defenders, Khan knows garage rock like few others.
