| Having relocated from the Bay Area to Los Angeles in 2014, The Herms add true grit and originality to the sun-fried, post-punk scene of Southern California. Born in the co-ops of Berkeley with bedroom Tascam recordings in the mid aughts, nurtured in San Francisco, and finally finding residence on the East side of LA, The Herms brings a frenetic, schizophrenic charm to the lo-fi reemergence. Matt Lutz leads the charge with his lefty guitar and, at times, Mark E. Smith style vocals. Vlad Duran adds melodic bass lines, and Mike Leyva on drums fill out the other points of the sonic triangle. |
