(photos by Jayne Min)

I’ve already written extensively in praise of (like HERE and HERE and HERE and also HERE), and have let my single white female tendencies shine bright like creepy, adoring diamond, so I won’t blather on anymore here except to say this: The Coathangers, with their well-crafted punk songs and super high-energy shows are not only one of the best bands in the game right now, they are also some of the most down-to-earth, kind, funny, pretty losers I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. You should buy their new album Suck My Shirt because it’s great. Also they smell good. That’s all.

Here’s the interview:

1. What is your life motto?
Expect the worst…hope for the best!

It’s the little things!

Well we’ve got it pretty lucky buuuut having to return to work!

Sense of humor.
