The Hunches

The Hunches, from Portland (Oregon), are heirs to the glorious tradition of Northwestern garage-rock. Yes. No. Shut It. (2002) is the sonic equivalent of a carpet bombing campaign. Along the axis of Rolling Stones, MC5 and the Cramps, the Hunches ridicule the very idea of a rock song. Their frenzied "songs" are epileptic fits and at times they even display melodic flair. Hobo Sunrise (2004) is no less lethal, perhaps even more tribal and dissonant. The reckless, breathless, shameless mess evokes underground gods such as Von Lmo and Feedtime.
