If the XTC that made Drums And Wires were from Baltimore, they would be Impossible Hair . The hooks, both catchy and a bit disjointed, mixed together with intricate keyboards and precision drumming, have the signature sound of Wham City all over it. But their Baltimore is a different Wham City – not the hipster one where Dan Deacon is ringleader. Songs like "Tambourines of Fury" and "Have You Got The Dog?" instantly reel the listener in, full [...]

Baltimore/DC band Impossible Hair are an interesting area band with an interesting debut album about to be released entitled What Is The Secret Of Impossible Hair . Their myspace page categorizes them as 'happy hardcore' - while I hear the happy, the hardcore is hard for me to place. Impossible Hair are that band playing out of their garage a few blocks away...strumming a fuzzed out guitar with songs that sound like the Kinks, The Knack, and surf rock covered by Thurston Moore. A low fi garage rock melting pot of sounds that is honest. What [...]

Impossible Hair ed il loro primo album "What Is The Secret Of Impossible Hair?". Una ventata di freschezza. Sempre gradita [...]
