Most likely I would be bringing you the latest single from Athens, GA's Shehehe no matter what, but this quote from the band about their latest single certainly sealed the deal for me: “'Wanna Be You' is a work of fiction about two characters from two great rock and roll songs, 'Sheena Is A Punk Rocker' by Ramones and 'Allison Is Starting To Happen' by The Lemonheads. If they met and became friends we think it would go a little somethin' like this…” Sonically, "Wanna Be You" sounds a bit more like the Ramones meets TAANG! era Lemonheads than "Allison's Starting to Happen," but it does have the catchy side of It's a Shame About Ray. It's just Atlantic Records era Lemonheads with the noise from Hate Your Friends, and I'm obviously going to love that sound.
You can watch the video for "Wanna Be You" below. Namedroppers is due out August 23 on SAY-10 Records. For more on Shehehe, check out the band's website.
