B.W.'s PLAYLIST/ KHSU-FM, 90.5/ SAT., 31 OCT. 09 (YEAH, IT'S HALLOWEEN)

It's evident that The Boy Wonder uses the hell out of Snakehips' excellent song, "Hell On Earth," from frontman/singer/songwriter Mark Harrison, (taken from the killer debut 1993 record, Lit), for Halloween. It's named after the "Hell On Earth" annual Memphis celebration/ garage rock extravaganza. Snakehips, formed in Memphis, later finding residence in Nashville, rocks from the T. Rex/Mott-vein, Southern style. Check out their whole catalog, most of which, are available with Feralette Records.
