Damone

Makes sense that the title track has graced a Fox sitcom, as these way-too-polished metallic power-poppers traffic in post-teen earnestness while finding the common ground between Slayer and a Kewpie doll. Thankfully, on their second album, the femme-led quartet -- named for Fast Times at Ridgemont High's unctuous ticket scalper -- also make the songs stick like bubble gum in your hair.
