PETA Hates These Guys

• Artist: Ape Hangers
  
• Album: Ultrasounds
  
• Year: 1995
  
• Why I picked it up: The album artwork is a good retro-50s throwback style drawing which I liked a lot.

The Ape Hangers are a pretty good rock band with an almost oldies/surf rock feel to them, albeit a revived and heavier oldies. This is one of those albums that'll have you tapping along to the beats and rocking out. Sure, it's not deep musically or even terribly good, but it's fun. There's music that opens your eyes and changes the way you view what music is, and there's music that just makes you want to smile and dance. This is the latter.

Incidentally, I store fur coats on ape hangers. *rim shot*
