The Hitchhikers – Intellectual Properties of the Minimal Mind
Hitchhikers
singer/bassist Mitch Cartwright used to be in the Humpers, and it
probably goes without saying that this particular apple didn’t fall far
from the tree. Intellectual Properties of the Minimal Mind spits out
snotty punk & roll fireballs like a dragon with acid reflux,
sparing no one, least of all itself. “10 Days On the Road,”
“Nothinmatron” and “Somethin’ for Nothin’” rock furiously and bitch
mightily, as classic a combo as a Les Paul and a Marshall Stack. The
quartet occasionally takes time out for a pop song like “On the Phone,”
but it ain’t pop as Maroon 5 knows it, with the sneering lines “Did you
really think you could make it without me/So sad to hear you crying on
the phone.” Bad attitude + killer riffs + freight train drive – as the
song says, “That’s Rock N’ Roll.”
