bedsitter23The Men is a terrible name (and Leave Home is a ripoff name for an album, of course), but they are a pretty good band.
Not that I normally go for the buzz band of the moment, but I am okay with this.
Attempts to categorize this Brooklyn band have included No Wave Noo Yawk noise (Suicide, Sonic Youth), psychedelic/space/krautrock (My Bloody Valentine, Neu!, Spacemen 3) and late 80s alt rock (Dinosaur Jr., Mudhoney, Husker Du, uhhh....Sonic Youth again).
Still, there's an element of Stooges punk too.
Good stuff, regardless.
