Gramahawk is the third album by Athens, Georgia band Modern Skirts.

It is the record of a band honest to their musical tastes and to their desire to create and perform both intellectually crafted and inherently catchy songs. Perhaps the most striking aspect of the record is insight into vocalist Jay Gulley’s dark, imaginative and humorous brain. A song about Gulley’s second DUI (that’s failing a breathalyser on this side of the pond), an ode to ’80s one hit wonder Jane Child, and a stomping, aggressive mantra about taking off his date’s top while being serenaded by a Mariachi band are just the beginning.

We’re pleased to report that there is gleeful and twisted pop evil afoot here.

Gramahawk is released on the 18th January.
