Best Indescribable, Genre-Hopping Band
Downtown Brown; dtbmusic.com
These guys are a trip, and there’s really no nailing them down. You see one YouTube video, and you think that they’re a stupid rap-rock band like the Bloodhound Gang. Next thing, you hear a tune that sounds like Zappa. Then they morph into Iron Maiden, or at least Dream Theater. They recently opened for Richie Ramone and fit in just fine. Truth is, these bastards can do whatever the fuck they want.
