67: HEAD AND THE HARES try to forget

  • Summary

  • Minor-key weepers Head and the Hares: “Try To Forget”: If you dig this kind of obscure music be sure to visit my Monacled Alchemist website for information and details on many unsung heroes.. Head and the Hares are seldom mentioned these days but at the start of the nineties they meant a lot to a handful of people around the world. When the bone-throwing, fuzz-propelled garage punk was starting to wane dramatically these boys from Rome started a band to demonstrate their admiration for the moody folk-rock sound of New England circa 66/67. So here is a taster of their 1992 LP released on Moulty Records. Magical and bleak original songs sit proudly with covers by the 24 Karat 5, The Effects and the Barons. The world has never been so melancholic since.

He was very impressed by the band’s pure New England sound and offered to release an ep on his label. The band travelled 100 miles north of Rome to an analogue studio located in a small village called Tobia near lake of Vico to record four songs chosen from their live set The post 67: HEAD AND THE HARES try to forget appeared first on The Monocled Alchemist.
