It’s affectation-free roots rock, based less on self-conscious attempts at garage-rock puritanism than on being some music you can goddamn dance to.”

“If Yoko Ono had fallen in love with Adam Ant instead of John Lennon. Or like what happened when the Go-Go’s met the Fire Engines.” While it may be a pretty accurate description of this local Athens band, you’re not really gonna get it until you listen.

Who doesn’t love a good cover band? How about a Cuban salsa band that covers Misfits songs? It’s even better than it sounds. These guys and gal fuse latin music with horror punk, while playing with maracas taped to their hands. Plus they have an upright base. You can’t fully appreciate the genius of it all until you take a listen.
