The Margaret Hooligans band has released their new single, “Red Rider.” This single is a female-driven song with lots of percussion and fuzz. It’s interesting
in that the “Red Rider” song has echoes of late 1960-early 1970’s music. Red Rider’s theme is almost like Little Red Riding Hood. The band is based in
Pennsylvania and delivers a great video (see the youtube video below!)
From The Margaret Hooligans bio:
To start, Red Rider lets loose with a long wail of fuzz and syncopated drumming before Meg starts in with the verse, “They…said you weren’t to be trusted…”
what follows is an updated interpretation of the Red Riding Hood fairytale, but the lyrics reveal how it could also be an allegory for the last few years we’ve
been living through. The drumming is repetitive but complicated, while the electric ukulele is sparse, ringing out while Meg retells the tale. The middle of the
song is full of fantasia, with a swirl of ethereal arias, crashing symbols, clanging cowbells, pounding djembe, and electric ukulele noise.
Reinterpreting well-known folklore to tell your version of the story is nothing new, but with Red Rider, Pennsylvania band The Margaret Hooligans illustrate that
the practice is still relevant. Throughout the story, they describe a situation in which she was warned but took no heed. She was trapped in the belly of the beast
where the acids eat away at her spark, and how she was lost on a merry-go-round. The lyrics and the intensity of the singing and instruments seem relevant
to recent current events. While And yet, there is hope, as the character is eventually delivered from her predicament as we all may hope to be. Red Rider
is the third single from their upcoming sophomore album, Turntable Tribulations, due out in October.
The band has been releasing a new single from the album every month since April and will continue to do so through September with the full album release
to be in October. A limited release of CDs will also be available in October. “Red Rider” was recorded in the basement of Piety Street Publishing, mixed and mastered
by Jon Huxtable of Smallfish Recordings, and was produced by Mr. Strontium.
The band has been growing a small but dedicated following, and it’s growing .. as you can see by the reviews listed below!
“Driven by fuzz and distortion, the song combines rock music from more than half a century and thereby mixes an explosive cocktail.” – Mangowave Full review here: https://mangorave.blogspot.

Quotes about The Margaret Hooligans:
“Going to a Yo Yo Ma”: “A clean production full of charm, against a background of darkness of the soul.” – Julien James Vachon, Direct Actu “
With the relentless onslaught of the drums, growling guitar licks, and punchy punk poetry of the lyrics, The Margaret Hooligans have carved out a wacky
and wonderful niche entirely their own.” – Matt Miles, Yack Magazine
“The drums drive like they used to back when drumming was good and didn’t just have a play/ pause button, the guitar scratches and calls, the vocals are
exceptional. I think Betting On the House is one of the most loving songs I have heard for a long time, without the tropes of a love song as such.”
– Danzig Krupp, Dark Strudel
About “Betting on the House”: “The heights of the track are glorious as distorted guitar chords and streaming guitar leads swirl together, thickening the
stew as the main ingredients of powerful drums and sonorous vocals provide the protein.” – Izzy the Gent
“It sounds like it’s made by someone that is still earnestly in love with rock music.” – Alt 7

Review:
I think that The Margaret Hooligans has a handle on current music as well as previous musical styling that hasn’t been heard for the last 10 years and is
starting to be heard from by a wide variety of musicians. The interesting part is that the Margaret Hooligans have done this particular styling first!
I think that this band can create some very interesting music.
