Independent Journalism in Phoenix Needs You
We need to raise $15,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
Without giving too much of the column away, these are 4/5 of the kids that were in spazzcore enthusiasts We Fly Our Kites at Night (who I blogged about here), and although that sounds like a much cooler name than Hellas Mounds, Hellas Mounds actually means something: it’s a strange grouping of hilly lumps on Mars that are mysterious for scientific reasons that are beyond me. Nonetheless, the band is one of the most exciting new projects I’ve seen recently, in a droning, stoner-rock, loud sorta way, and it’s not quite tangible what I’m explaining in the column without hearing the group. Thus, here’s your chance – feel free to bust out your commentating skills with your opinion of them.
