Fluffed Up On Puff Balls - Harriet The Spy

Skating on the thin ice between brilliance and obnoxious idiocy, Harriet the Spy of Kent, OH provided a slap in the face to the sanctimonious nature of 90s hardcore musically, aesthetically and lyrically. Fittingly born of the same town that spawned Devo, Harriet the Spy created spastic, chaotic masterpieces of riff-filled dual guitars, dual pissoff vocals and some of the most pounding drums laid to record using formulas both simple and innovative. There is no apt comparison to them, save for something as vague as "Pavement meets Heroin" or something equally as nondescript.
