I want to make a mention of the Texas foursome Honey Claws. Their eponymous debut is a wildly uneven, eclectic affair that combines electronica and straight up hip hop. There were several times while I was listening that I had to stop and make sure what I was hearing was all from the same record. There’s much experimenting going on here, sometimes too much, but it definitely kept me interested.
