"The Herms...sound like vintage Ray Manzarek conducting a boogie-rock band full of sideshow freaks...it's their talent to draw on their influences without aping anyone in particular. That's what separates The Herms from nearly every other band digging for gold in the same long-barren hills of classic influences. Here's a band that can remind you of great bands, and still be great in its own right." - SF WEEKLY
San Francisco-based The Herms create a deliriously infective brew of post-punk, art rock and garage, sounding occasionally like Swell Maps, The Fall or The Doors - sometimes all at the same time. They've already captured local radio, with airplay on San Francisco's Live 105, as well as the covers of local music press, including SF Weekly and Mesh. On their debut full-length, lead singer/songwriter Matt Lutz and bassist Alex Tuzin form the core of the group, with Bay Area journeyman drummer Chris Sipe joining the current live lineup. John Hofer (Mother Hips, Downy Mildew) guests on drums.
