“Indie-rockers The HandGrenades, with their shimmering guitars, arresting rhythms and brit-pop hooks, recently celebrated the release of their debut full length, self-titled LP. The young quartet take a Beatles-esque approach to songwriting, letting whoever writes it–sing it–highlighting not only their individual personalities, but the breadth of their pop sensibilities.”

“The HG’s have a kind of Walkmen, French Kicks, early Coldplay, Brit-pop, NYC-hipster-rock…ah, fuck it. They sound like a lot of really awesome bands combined, and their live cover of the Rolling Stones’ “The Last Time”…is pretty kick ass. So yeah, go see ‘em…”

“The HandGrenades are a modern band…Good times for all!”

“Soulful indie-rockers The HandGrenades have set themselves up for a quite a 2010…From guitar-roaring, hook-heavy struts with a bit of a bluesy hue, to their ’50s American-pop recalling piano-led affairs that highlight the harmonies to the more atmospheric-pedal-effected stratosphere rockers…Listen to them live (myspace.com/listentohandgrenades) and see them live.”
