No doubt about it, Head of Skulls have some serious Chicago rock n' roll pedigree. Singer/guitarist Chris Hansen also fronts Pinebender, bassist Allison Hollihan played in Atombombpocketknife, and Noah Leger (also in a band I'm in, if that means anything) has played in Milemarker, Challenger, Hurl, Taking Pictures, Thee Speaking Canaries, and World/Inferno Friendship Society. Their music is a healthy dose of each of their other bands, and also reminiscent of Hot Snakes/early-era Unwound. If you are into the louder sounds of the Chicago music scene, look no further than Head of Skulls. Word on the street says they just finished mixing a full length, but no release date has been scheduled yet. I bet if you come to the show tonight you'll hear a good amount of what the record entails. They'll be opening for Memphis' own Lover!, and Pittsburgh spazzos Modey Lemon.
