Bands with cool names - Vol. 1




Hungry Kids of Hungary.

Yes OK I'll admit when I first heard of the name the Hungry Kids of Hungary my initial response was..... *raised eyebrow* um.. .. seriously? But back then I was uninitiated. Now, I am not. Now, I am a fan of not only their catchy 60's brand of pop/rock but also their initially-annoying-yet-eventually-cool band name. And it says on their Myspace they are still unsigned. Well if that's the case I'm sure that won't be for long.

I am currently loving their song Wristwatch, which is getting quite a bit of airplay on Triple J at the moment. It's only 1 minute and 54 seconds long but that is 1 minute and 54 seconds of pure boppy poppy bliss.

Check out the video and some tunes below-
