Led by Hunx (a.k.a. Seth Bogart), formerly of queer dance unit Gravy Train!!!!, Hunx and His Punx puts the gay back into garage on “Too Young To Be In Love” (Hardly Art).
Described as the first “proper” studio album by the band, the 10 songs smell like black leather motorcycle jackets and boots, Brylcreem and Final Net, cigarettes and Dentyne.
The band’s girl-group grind is filtered through Hunx’s distinctly queer perspective, which is revved up on songs such as “He’s Coming Back,” “Keep Away From Johnny,” “The Curse of Being Young,” “If You’re Not Here (I Don’t Know Where You Are)” and “Tonite Tonite.”
Hunx and His Punx perform April 15 at The Earl in East Atlanta, as part of the Atlanta Mess-Around festival.
