The BATTLEHOOCH episode of Onstage with Jim and Tom is now online. This is a funny and sweet episode celebrating 10 years of the band’s existence. Watch us smoke cigars and play cards while exploring deep levels of philosophical abstraction.

Drawing on everyone from Syd Barrett to Tame Impala, the band describes their music as “a mutant strain of kaleidoscopic rock & roll.” If that doesn’t pique your curiosity, I don’t know what will. Listen to their 2013 full-length Hot Lungs or last year’s Wink EP and you’ll hear a dazzling variety of colorful instruments and effects. “Joke” sports a hearty dose of badass saxophone, “Hope” has the spunky bounce of classic Elvis Costello, and “Carry Me Upstream” is druggy, groove-centric bliss not unlike Dandy Warhols.
The band is currently on an East Coast tour with stops in NYC and Pennsylvania this coming week. If you’re in that neck of the woods, do check these guys out. Prepare to dance your ass off.
