Hanson Brothers

Vancouver, BC

My Game CD/LP They shoot, they score! After five years on the bench for major misconduct, Canuck rink rats The Hanson Brothers are back on the offensive with their third puck-rock power-play My Game. Sticking to their tried-and-true formula, the bros -- Johnny, Robbie, Tommy and new drummer Ernie -- belt out 15 tunes about Canada's national pastime, set to the three-chord pinhead glory of classic Ramones. "No fancy schmancy pants and / No dipsy doodle dancing / It's hockey a la Hanson," Johnny promises on the title cut, and for the next 40 minutes that's what you get -- pounding drums, driving bass, grinding guitars and lyrics about breakaways, rookies, hoisting the cup and giving 110%. Clearly, these boys came to play. (Winnipeg Sun)
