Seth Combs wrote this about Heavy Hawaii:
It was clear from Hawaii’s opening song why they don’t have a MySpace account or any music posted. Their live show was a dreadful display, sounding like a group of special-education students covering Captain Beefheart.(SD City Beat)
I think Seth is wrong about Heavy Hawaii. I heard distinct song structure and while the vocal distortion is a "love it/hate it" thing, it was interesting to me. I also think the "no myspace" thing is cool. But just in case anyone is looking up Heavy Hawaii and see both these results in the Top 10: I thought they were good, not bad. "Special education students covering Captain Beefheart," perhaps used for a different band, is a great turn of phrase, so in that regard "Great Job."
