"If you not listening to Bad Rabbits, you wrong *looks at OP*"


  

          

For real, I just discovered these Boston cats like two, three weeks ago (hey! I'm old... I don't get out to shows much these days!) and already, I think they are my favorite current band.

RIck James called his sound "punk funk," but I think these dudes really deliver on the promise of that label... I think OldPro would dig 'em because they're a bit like Chromeo, but funkier (and with stronger vocals).

(JG has bigged 'em up a few times around here... I don't think BigReg is gonna like them that much, though!)

Their cover of "Human Nature" is on the front page of this site right now, but I don't think that's even close to their best stuff.

Sure, but PUNK as a form of music has its distinct qualities...
Feb 15th 2011
