about

HANDS ON HEADS are a dysfunctional pop group from London, writing abrupt, to the point, non-repetitive songs about unrequited friendship, romantic potential, the supernatural everyday, righteous joy and expectation. Their songs rarely scale the dizzying heights of the two minute mark, relying on shock and awe songwriting tactics to get their message across. The band doesn't believe in reiteration, they make a point with emphasis, then move on to the next fractured song of double-speed dynamics and feral abandon. The guitar lines jump from fret to fret like ten spiders on a web of chaotic noise, the organ - always pitched at a haunting seasick echo - is played like a stenograph, whilst the drums tumble and blast along with the savage bass, the songs forever pushed onwards by the fervent vocal attack.
