Grey Hairs Answer Questions in Photos

Following up their debut album, Colossal Downer, with another cathartic serving of mid-thirties frustration expressed through the medium of howling vocals and loud, fuzzed-out guitars, Grey Hairs’ sophomore LP is Serious Business. With a punk rawness that wholly translates from stage to recording, one listen and we were sold. We asked them to put down their respective instruments and answer our incredibly deep and meaningful questions with their camera devices. Like the album, the results don’t disappoint.
