Formed from the ashes of the recently deceased and very much missed Twenty Tanks Say Thanks and ball-rock champions Savage Arm, Henparty now begin their exciting voyage into the rock and roll scene.
Bonding on a love of short attention spans and the work of obscure Flemish post-punk combo The Sit, Omar Plastic and Bear McFlurry began recording earlier this year. In all, 68 tracks were finished, with the finest of the bunch making their way onto the forthcoming collection entitled LADS 12": A secret Anthology of Henparty.
Bringing the blob-rock guitar chops and electrifying ride cymbal work of their previous bands to a whole new level, LADS is one not to be missed, or indeed subsequently forgotten about.

From the outset the band cite their influences as, 'Dutch post-punk combo The Sit, The Clean, Tall Dwarfs, Halo Benders, Guided by Voices and Beat Happening'. Henparty are adamant they make 'pop music, and no mistake'. Their MySpace hosts no actual pictures of the band, unless the band is comprised of two chickens, two bin bags, Ross Kemp, Danielle Westbrook, Steve McFadden and a bear. We can only dream. According to group, the band is comprised of 'Omar Plastic and Bear McFlurry'. So there really is a bear at least.
The duo say they look like Woody Harrelson 'only during the month of October'. "We resemble two black spar value bin liners more. Eye of the beholder stuff, y'know?”
Questioned on where they’re from, the band try to explain. “It’s hard to say. We're definitely not from the north of south, anyway. It's an east-west deal.”
Galactic City Heard and Mc Donald Islands are cited as their hometowns. But the trees are not made of chips on Mc Donald Islands as you might expect: “It's barren. Zero nutrition and it's full of thousands of teenagers in tracksuits being dicks. The band got together on 'one hot sticky drunken night' in 2009. But they insist they 'can't really get into it here'.
