HONKY
House of Good Tires (Hall of Records)

Reviewed by Holly Day



Oh, this is even too incredibly juvenile for me to appreciate, and that's saying something. It's as though a bunch of guys that had been practicing Molly Hatchet cover songs in their garages since they were 12 got together to form a band, then attempted to write their own songs from that limited base of experience. The songs are, of course, all about how good they are in bed, getting into fights, the perks of being a good ol' boy, and playing with guns. For an added touch, all the letters in the song titles are made up of nekked ladies in provocative poses, which should have tipped me off to what I was in for before I even put the record on.
