Album Notes & Community Reviews
The Philadelphia collective's debut is a chaotic, intensely theatrical collision of experimental indie rock and gypsy punk. Honus Honus leads the manic, multi-instrumental ensemble through bizarre, carnival-esque arrangements that utilize toy pianos, xylophones, and frantic, shouted vocal harmonies.
