Dead Hookers

about

The Dead Hookers are a psychedelic punk band out of Wausau, WI. This brazen 5 piece can loosely be classified as a garage band. Their songs are centered around traditional 60’s [garage riffs. But instead of restructuring and rehashing the same ‘ol Back From The Grave tunes, the Dead Hookers bring something completely refreshing to the table. They adjoin their fuzzy, decayed Nuggets-like tunes with trippy, blissful Gris Gris-ey psychedelic interludes. So, each song has more of a path, than just the same ‘ol verse/chorus/verse structure. And the result is something very uniquely their own. Much like bands like the Catholic Boys, Black Lips and the Functional Blackouts; the Dead Hookers possess a sense of “sound”. Meaning when you hear one of their songs, you know right away that it’s a Dead Hookers tune. It’s a sound that’s kind of hard to categorize because you can’t really pigeonhole true art. Well after listening to each composition on their debut ‘The Burial/The Rebirth’ you’ll be left with an understanding of their catchy, tweater gnashing, dimentia.
