We’re loving this, the first taste from Hooded Fang’s forthcoming album Gravez. Graves is the ultra catchy, fuzzy album opener, “So many faces and they’re all the same… why you lookin’ at me?”, it is a perfect mix of paranoid tripped out psych-pop and garage rock. Gravez is out 27th May (UK) / 28th May (USA) on Full Time Hobby. Continue reading MM Shorts 355: Hooded Fang’s Graves

The record, inspired mostly by failed affairs, a divorce, and life in the shadow of LA’s show-business culture, took the band two years to produce. We’ve been thoroughly seduced by these two tracks, Baby’s First Steps … Continue reading Introducing >>> Young Hunting
