Since 2002, the Human Adult Band has served as a vehicle of noisy, sludgy, beautiful rock'n'roll piloted by a Mr. Trevor Pennsylvania and a huge, revolving cast of local musicians. The group values spontaneity and vitality to a great degree and going off to several Human Adult Band shows always result in different, yet extremely rewarding experiences. Due to the changing line-up and gigantic amount of ideas in Mr. Pennsylvania's head, one can see the band as a giant, murky pool of ideas that always feel invigorating.
In 2009, the Human Adult Band was listed as a part of Bryon Coley and Thurston Moore's Bull Tounge Top Ten in Arthur Magazine, in which the group's music was described as making one "wanna grip some frosty skuzz lose yr brain into the amp squall." The band has a new record, Hearing Damage Sessions, which is now out on Heat Retention Records and Third Uncle. I interviewed Trevor about the new record and other aspects of the group. Check it out after the jump!
