Cut Off Your Hands

The Auckland, New Zealand group formally known as Shaky Hands is my second enjoyable music find of the week. They're a poppy post-punk group, and teeter between the extremes that fit into that description. The only slightly cringe-worthy aspect of the group is having a tinge of a progressive hard-core sound, in the Forward, Russia! vein. That basically means the lead singer can sound a bit, but only a bit, emo sometimes. Oh and they have a very tight rhythm section.
