Overview
Back in the day, punk music was pretty scary. There were crazy piercings, dudes fashioning mohawks with eggs — even the ladies of punk were pretty scary. You may have noticed that punk is experiencing a revival (or new-wave) at the moment, something that Amy Franz and Hayley McKee of Super Wild Horses say they're accidentally a part of. "[It’s] mainly because of the bands that we play with", Franz tells me, but that's not entirely true. The essence of first-wave Punk was defined predominantly by an attitude — that you were in control of your own future and if you wanted anything from it, you'd have to just do it yourself and stick it to 'the man'.
Franz and McKee kind of say that. They've just released their first 12-inch, Fifteen which they recorded on an 8-track in one weekend, on their own. It's the eve of their launch tour so you can see just how DIY they are when they're onstage too, playing multiple instruments simultaneously, which Franz says started "because there [is just] two of us. We never really thought about having any extra people in the band." Punk has two pretty, new faces.
