Cool.

I like this. Great combo.

Oh, maybe while they were recording these songs, Kris could've finished the vocals for the Ataris record he's been promising for years on end.

Absolutely this.

Also, if this was released as an Ataris song, people would go crazy.

and promises of a record of unreleased old Ataris songs too

that ataris record is slated for spring '13 now

Wow loving these. This is the first I've heard of this though. Are they planning on releasing more or was this just a fun little side thing they did together?

Hard to say. This is from The Ataris' Facebook:

"Here's some brand new music you need to check out! Kristopher Roe of The Ataris sang, Bill Stevenson of Descendents / ALL / Black Flag played Drums, our friend Kevin Carl of G-Whiz played guitar and Bob Hoag of Pollen and The Go Reflex helped out as well. Kevin Carl is a good friend of ours. He needed someone to sing and play on his tunes so it was an honor to help him out. The project is called Higley. If you are a fan of any of the bands mentioned above, you will love these songs! Go download them now and please repost! Thanks for your support."

part of me thinks these are really new Ataris songs but kris has a dark sense of humor sometimes and likes to annoy people haha. probably not true but who knows since everyone remembers how their last album's demos got leaked. these are such good songs, musically and lyrically back to the punk roots! two thumbs up!
