| | Ink 19 :: Hesher |
 | | Hesher, Queens-native Chip Love, is a genre-hopper in the highest degree and a soulful addition to the rap-rock canon. |
 | | In fact, the rap-rock moniker would do this relaxed recording renegade a great disservice, due to the fact that Hesher respectfully flirts with new wave, hardcore punk, classic pop, and acoustic balladry with reckless abandon, and has a rugged soulfulness conspicuously absent from the today's troupes of guitar n' turntable thwompers. |
 | | With assistance from high-profile pals Everlast, N'Dea Davenport, Chino Moreno, and members of Cibo Matto and Bad Brains, the star-studded musical grab-bag Self-Titled Debut sounds like the hook-laden rock equivalent of the Handsome Boy Modeling School record. |
