One foot in the grave

Part-psychobilly, part-garage rock, even a hint of primeval Nashville, The Humms are an Atlanta, Georgia trio who, it says here, "loud music about murder, drugs, drunks, ghost, hippies, colors and of course...love." Their lysergic graveyard take on rock'n'roll seems equally inspired by rockabilly, Big Star and Nuggets, and is one of those fascinatingly out of time melodic three minutes at a time bands you come across every so often. Odd Box Records, from the people who brought London the recently finished Lostmusic nights, are putting out a limited edition run of their Are You Dead? EP.

The Humms - Do The Graverobber!
