"Torn Away" by Dancing Hoods
Dancing Hoods was an indie band trying to break through in the late 80s with their second release, "Hallelujah Anyway". They were praised by The Replacements and their single, "Baby's Got Rockets", scored some airplay on MTV. Despite these promising starts, the band could not attract major label attention. "Torn Away" is another terrific tune that started this great little underrated album.
