“H.R.A. bring me back to the early to mid 80s. They play some mean ass hardcore/punk/metal. Not the modern hardcore or metalcore or all that stuff. I_m talking the original hardcore that Circle Jerks and early Suicidal Tendencies played. This stuff is fast paced and fucking ripping. Total aggression and conviction displayed with the songs. This is when D.R.I. started playing shows with Slayer and The Cro Mags were playing shows with Destruction.” -Metal Maniacs

Featuring ex-members of Dixie Waste
Jody Seabody & the Whirls (Katy, Texas)

Jody Seabody and the Whirls is pure energy and emotion. The sound of this psychedelic punk-pop-rock band from Houston, Texas varies from vast landscapes of lush chords to dissonant wastelands of distorted fuzz, sometimes all in one song. These musicians are not “indie-pop”, do not wear skinny jeans, nor have mustaches. They also do not apologize for any of these fashion faux pas.
Jody Seabody comfortably straddles genre boundaries without obligating itself to any particular sound or classification. Covert funk (à la Sly and the Family Stone) and a rawness reminiscent of Nirvana’s B-sides share equal presence in the Jody Seabody catalog. These trademarks in combination with its members’ tongue-in-cheek demeanors result in energetic and entertaining live performances.
Past show highlights include three sets during SXSW 2011 and a spot on the Free Press Summer Fest 2011 and 2012 line-ups. To complement their two previously self-released EPs (“Orange” and “Jody Seabody and the Whirls Sing Songs”), their debut album “Summer Us” was released on June 30, 2012.
