The Hussys




I found The Hussys while surfing some forums today and took the poster's hype with a grain of salt. But his praise was not complete hyperbole. The Hussys sort of remind me of Morningwood in a way. Sort of in that we're straddling the fence between a really poppy radio friendly (corporate) sound and a sort of almost indie rock one (though they've released both of their EPs on their own Fat Cheerleader label). And that's not a bad thing at all. They have a really infectious sound and will probably deserve the massive airplay they'll receive in the future from more great singles such as Napoleon Dynamite. Its a great song that gets stuck in your head and forces you into singing along with the chorus. I love the drums and synths in this one and Fili, the singer's voice is so sweetly perfect with the lyrics. I foresee great things coming from this Glaswegian sextet in the future. Head over to their myspace and check out some more songs off their first release and another from the EP Napoleon is from. After you've become their friend stop by their site and pick up their first 2 releases.
