Happy Hollows - Bunnies and Bombs: C

Music: 8/10 Vocals: 3/5 Lyrics: 2/5 Production: 3/5
Total: 16/25 = C

It's 1am. You're favorite band just played at the local dive bar. You've have one too many. Should you risk driving or see the next band? 3 piece. Girl singer. Kinda hot (at 1am after too many beers). You stay. Enter the Happy Hollows from California.

Now, my C is very misleading. I love this band. They are completely unpolished. Think punk meets insanity. They lyrics are nonsensical. The music is basic, loud, and crunchy. It's fantastic yet horrible. Most people would dismiss them as untalented, drugged, and dumb. Hell, they may even be right. But, nonetheless, I'm hooked. If you like very alternative, indie, punk, noise, rock, then please grab a copy of Bunnies and Bombs. It's only an EP but hopefully a prelude to much better things (like a better studio).
