The earnestness exuded by Sheer Mag as an ’80s hair band is pure dedication.
Philadelphia’s newest scrappy act is clearly influenced by teased hair, Lita Ford and rollicking guitar licks. Christina Halladay ‘s unmistakable vocals compliment the hard-charging raucous riffs on the full-length “A Distant Call.”
Watch the overly dramatic clip for “Hard to Blame” below and catch the Philly rockers on a tour where facemelts will be had freely and often.
