Chicago-based girl-group/garage-pop combo Hollows nimbly toss out punchy drum fills, driving eighth-note riffs, and lots of catchy, pogoing effervescence on their new album, Vulture (Trouble in Mind, 2012), a record much closer in sound and spirit to the fondly remembered Valley Girl new-wave pop of '80s cult favorites like Josie Cotton and Nikki & the Corvettes than, say, Vivian Girls. They scale back the monster-mash carnivalesque that sometimes obscured their debut's killer hooks, and the results are predictably crafty and totally charming. Groove along at this record-release show at Subterranean.
