Hot Hands: A Tribute to Throwing Muses & Kristin Hersh

Editorial Reviews
The Windy City Times, January 7, 2004
"a serious salute. inspired interpretations"

The Boston Phoenix, January 9-15, 2004
"pays homage to Throwing Muses and the band's primary songstress, Kristin Hersh, without mimicking or maiming the original material."

Album Description
This is the first-ever tribute to one of college/indie rock's classic bands and its charismatic leader. The tracks on the disc come from a wide variety of musicians and represent an equally wide variety of styles, from industrial/dance and heavy metal to folk, electronica, upbeat pop and more. The goal of the project was to not end up with 18 tracks of bands trying to sound just like Throwing Muses. We asked the participating artists to take the songs and put their own unique, creative stamp on them.
