Psychic Hotline – 20 Sep 2024
I wash shocked to find that this wasn’t a track-by-track cover of the They Might Be Giants classic album, but it turns out Minneapolis quartet Hippo Campus deliver an album just as fun. Flood is the band’s fourth full-length, following 2022’s cleverly-named LP3.
While Hippo Campus have a sporadic set of a dates this year, they really hit to ground running in 2025 with two legs of touring in February and May. See those dates and links at the bottom.
