Greatest band to come out of Chicago since...
author: Revue Magazine
Hot Heels Records, The Hi-Jacked Generation Band founder and co-singer/songwriter, Brandon Seyferth, when coming up with the group’s name, felt that the name of a band should be “a vehicle for people to find songs”. Considering the fact that their tracks tend to genre-hop, giving a band a name that sounds more like a record label perhaps wasn’t such a bad idea. The writing style has been compared to that of Jack Kerouac, patron writer of the Beat Generation, in that it acts as protagonist to the norms of which many off-beaters feel scrutinized. The music is a bold and compelling mix of great poetry and folk for those that take the road less traveled. A favorite track “Tanker Ships a Burnin” is a tribute for all the meek and tamed spirits caught up in the whims of a restless society. By far, Hot Heels Records is the greatest band to come out of Chicago since the group Morphine in the 80’s. (Similar tastes: Sonic Youth, Bob Dylan) The Focht
