Following the unveiling of lead single ‘Fistful Of Butter’ last month, Vermont lo-fi outfit Happy Jawbone Family Band have aired another track, ‘Now Everybody Rock Like You Got AIDS’, taken from their third LP, Tastes the Broom.
We hope you’ve got your ears braced for another disorientating aural assault of bratty squawks, tinny percussion and a grinding guitar riff that loops around and around like a creepy fairground carousel. HJFB are raucous, ramshackle and a little bit ridiculous but nevertheless unashamedly good fun.
