So there’s Aerosmith. And Oasis. Jamming with Queens Of The
Stone Age. Directed by cult movie director Alejandro Jodorowsky.
All in the mind of a 25 year old from Atlanta named Adrian
Barrera. The band is The Hiss, and their debut album Panic
Movement already set off an avalanche of praise in Great Britain
upon its release there this past August. Now comes its American
debut. We've been here before. Bob Dylan’s ‘Desire’; Big Star’s ‘Radio
City’; The Black Crowes ‘Southern Harmony And Musical
Companion’. But then that’s the classic American song writing
lineage Adrian Barrera fits into. From the opening seconds of
blast-furnace new single ‘Clever Kicks’, Panic Movement proves
The Hiss more than live up to the hype-machine which prompted
the NME to call them ‘a cross between The Verve and The Stooges’
and has seen everyone from Oasis to The White Stripes request
the band as touring partners.
“Thought The New Rock Revolution Couldn’t Get Any Better?
Think Again … The Hiss, They're From Atlanta And
They're Better
Than, Well, Everything”
- NME, Paul Moody, January 18, 2003
