The Headies - Huge in Germany, or Suck It Jersey Beat!

Here's the latest Headies review form Ox Fanzine Issue #87 out of Germany!!

HEADIES -
"Sugar And Spice (And Everything’s Fucked)" CD | Madison Underground | madisonundergroundpress.com | 21:54 ||
Pop-Punk in seiner schlichtesten form aus Wilmington, Delaware. GROOVIE GHOULIES und QUEERS lassen grusen, die RAMONES ja sowieso, 14 Songs kommen mit knapp 22 Minuten Spielzeit bestens klar, und gecovert wird auch, namlich "Bible Belt Baby“ von THE GIZMOS. Seit dem Vorganger "It’s A Super-Man’s World“ vom Sommer 2008 hat sich also nichts verandert in der HEADIES-Welt, und das ist auch gut so. Ist doch gut, dass manche dinge einfach ewig so bleiben, wie sie sind. (6) Joachim Hiller

And here's the translation:

Pop-punk in its simplest form from Wilmington, Delaware. GROOVIE GHOULIES and gravel can QUEERS, or the RAMONES anyway, 14 songs coming in just under 22 minutes playing time, very tight, and also covers, namely "Bible Belt Baby" by THE GIZMOS. Since the previous "It's A Super-Man's World" in the summer of 2008, nothing has changed in the Headies World, and that's a good thing. It's alright
that some things just stay like this forever, as they are.

Another Great Jersey Beat Review

The Headies - "Sugar and Spice (And Everything's Fucked)" CD -
One of the Headies is wearing a Riverdales hoodie over a New York Dolls t-shirt on the cover of this release. That's about right: they attempt sleazy guitar-driven garage rock in a 1-2-3-4 style. Sloppy playing and the band members' suspended adolescence make that otherwise solid combination not worth bothering with here. I cheated on first listen and skipped right to "PepsiFuckCheer" because that's a stupidly awesome song title. The song, however, is just stupid: "I love my girl and she loves my dick / Give her a Pepsi or she's gonna have a fit." Throughout the album, I tend to agree with Wendy, who is mentioned in the song "Jungle Girl": "My last girlfriend was Wendy, she was such a fucking bitch / Said I couldn't handle adult relationships." These are 30-something dudes apparently lusting after "Super Boot[ies]" and "Outer Space Short[ies]." Randomly placed terrible riffs, throat-hurting shouts, and falling-apart Beach Boys and Rolling Stones covers, don't help their case.
Reviewed by Chris Angiotti

Oh, opinions... I sent the record in to J.B. labeled "give to anyone but Andrew Fersch" who had really brutalized us. At least this dude clearly listened to the record! I wonder where he got the "thirty-something" thing from though...

"The older you get the more rules they'e gonna try and get you to follow..." - Wooderson

Not to get bitchy or defensive, but Chris betrayed some insight into his personality that is really not too favorable. For one, what part of garage punk rock is supposed to be sophisticated, tight, or mature? Is that what the listener pines for when reaching for a Sonics, Dictators, Gizmos, or Headies record? I think not. He makes it clear that "sleazy guitar-driven rock in the 1-2-3-4 style" is a "solid combination", and where we lost him is our "sloppy playing" and "suspended adolescence". Well, with the Headies, that is what you get. We have long since dismissed the pretension of certain punk rock and embraced the silly, "it's supposed to be fun" side. For some reason, this dude don't like that fun. Perhaps he sees us as comix or sci-fi geeks and his machoness can't take it. Citing us as "thirty-somethings" (we are all in our twenties! and deeply so when these songs were written!) and feeling some level of disgust in regard to our "lusting" after Super Booties and Outer Space Shorties, makes me think he wants more "age appropriate" song writing. Well, for some behind the scenes info, "Super Booty" is a love-story about a regular dude dating a comic book super hero, with adept and apropos lyrics. It is a challenging topic to write properly about whilst maintaining sweet rhymes and a sense of humor, and 99% of listeners agree it rules! "Jungle Girl" is a meta-narrative based on what happens to Peter Pan's love life directly following the egress of Wendy and the Darling Children back to London, concerned not only with which Neverland Girls he dates, but also with the syndrome assigned to his fictional name and the boys to men it's ascribed to back here in the real world, like me, apparently. So, it's fun, it's light, and it holds a intellectual challenge to those able to identify it. AND - lyrics are an abstracted reflection of the writer, who can lay out his own feelings into words, or take it up an artistic level and create characters, scenarios, and even action that comment on himself, the world, or the interaction thereof. So, don't worry Chris, I don't actually date aliens. That would be immature! Mainly, it was odd how the subject matter rubbed Chris the wrong way. Does he think we should be tighter and more serious while facing down the quantum fog of thirtiness? Fuck him!

I prefer:

From Razorcake.com - "Sugar and Spice (And Everything’s Fucked)" CD: What you got here is fun garage punk with a big dollop of primitive ‘60s influences and a great album title. Fourteen blasts of catchy melodies all contained in songs less than two and a half minutes, eleven of which are originals penned by The Headies. The lyrics are equal parts crude and cute which always seems fitting for garage rock of this nature. Highly recommended if you are a fan of acts as diverse as The Angry Samoans, Gas Huffer, early Screeching Weasel, or if you are just looking for an entertaining, snotty album to play at your next party.

From Maximumrocknroll 319 - "Sugar and Spice (And Everything's Fucked)" CD: Loose garage pop-punk. Reminds me of the early Hi-Fives and the Groovie Ghoulies with its raw production and fun attitude. I'm hearing a little Zeroes too. Good stuff. (ML)

From Rainbow Records Online - The Headies – "Sugar and Spice (And Everything’s Fucked)" CD - If you don’t like this album you are an uptight asshole that no one likes to be around. - Nate Powerstance

kt and i just bought this cd called "sugar and spice (and everything's fucked)" by the headies. you would love it. very pop-punk-surf-rock and completely silly. One of the songs is about a slutty alien he meets and in the refrain it says "you're the only alien i adore" one song also begins with "my last girlfriend was wendi she was such a fucking bitch." needless to say it made me think of you.

Homegrown Cafe 12/9/09

For those of you who were at the Homewreckers show last night, here is what you missed: All three Madison acts, the Headies, Billy Frolic, and Tit Patrol performed to a large and uproarious crowd, both PA speakers were plugged in during the Headies set, my innovative hairstyle (Johnny Thunders meets Adam Lambert meets Kate Plus 8) was appreciated and not misinterpreted by Connor Ba-Durr! who is smart and supportive, and Tit Patrol played the tightest set any band has ever played anywhere. And if you were there, keep yer mouth shut!

Book the Headies and Tit Patrol

As you may know, I am in two kick-butt bands. Tit Patrol is the ever popular road warrior pop-punk combo and the Headies is the punk and roll old school loud and fast jamberoo. Sample music from each is available through widget form on the sidebar, but please check out our myspaces, get in touch with us, and have us come play your town, venue, house, party, boat, school, dance, mixer, social, rally, roller derby match, or anything else that needs punk rock. Thanks, and we look forward to meeting you and rocking yer sox off!

The Headies @ Mojo 13 on Friday the 13th

Come out to Mojo 13 on Friday the 13th for more spoooooky fun with yer pals the Headies! Four bands total, but two of which had names far too long to cut out of the News Journal and Wizard Magazine.

Black Bubblegum!

The first half of the Headies recording sessions for their follow up to the million-selling "Sugar and Spice (And Everything's Fucked)" (Available on Interpunk) is complete. We spent the weekend at Second Story Sound in West Chester working with renowned producer Mike Bardzik and layed down seventeen tracks of drums, bass, two rhythm guitars, and saxophone. Still to come is all lead guitars, keyboards, tambourines, and lead and backup vocals featuring Grant and the Rad One from Tit Patrol, and maybe you! Well, probably not you. Fourteen songs will make up "Black Bubblegum" and hopefully be released next spring on twelve inch vinyl with complimentary free digital download card, and the remaining three songs are available for a split with some lucky band. Great work by Toddy, mc Ben, Billy Frolic, Wild Bill Kate, Mike Bardzik, and me! Ladies and gentlemen, commence drooling for this upcoming soul-punk epic!

Where Do All the Hippies Meet?

Hey! You live in Philly? Go Phils! And come see the "punk rock power pop with snotty vocals" of the Headies! Tonight at 9pm at the Tritone, 1508 South Street! They got pierogies!

The Headies - Huge in Germany!

Another review from the old country! Dude, I'm not sure if google translator is all it's cracked up to be, but here is what the Ox-Fanzine thinks about the Headies first EP, "It's a Superman's World." (Available on Interpunk.com and CDBaby.com).

Humph, nevertheless, eight songs, of it two covers, this is rather a better EP, or? If there is the whole, however, for the small price and with cool songs, goes already to order. The HEADIES (so shots in the head are called, by the way, in the "Killerspiel" jargon proved my Google search) from Delaware play classical punk rock in DESCENDENTS-and QUEERS kind and can be only convincing so of course. The cover are "Indian giver" of the RAMONES and " High on drugs " from the solo record of Metal Mike (ANGRY SAMOANS). This fits of course like the fist on the eye, and who is a fan of the tape called in the course of the text, can access without hesitation, all the others can sound the complete album before on cdbaby.com/cd/headies. There is a point Deduction for the length or shortness of the album (7)

Cool! A seven out of something! Usually we get one word in German or French that translates to "horrible!"

Long Lost Videos - The Headies High School Graduation

Dig this one! Last June the Headies played a High School Graduation in like Bear or somewhere. It was genuinely wild, as the kids were very "Brand New-ish" except for Rev. Rachel who booked us. She is punk. But there were like eighty underage kids and pizza and pop, so you know the Headies had a good time! Check out the New Found Glory banner behind us!

"Markle"


"I Don't Believe in Magic Now"


"Do the Gremlin"


"Betty is a Pill-Popper"

Long Lost Videos - First Headies Show

Billy Frolic recently made available these archival Headies vids from our first gig. It was a fill-in for the newly disbanded Jambox at the Mean Fiddler in Times Square. These people couldn't have cared less about us, but this two-girl euro-pop burlesque act did open for us which was kinda cool. Dig our freshness and minimalism!
