    Rather bizarre name for a band, eh? Well, it gets even more bizarre with their music. HPT calls it Anti-Satan Disco Funk Metal. Hmmm?! The music doesn't have a solid direction, as if they wrote only small portions of songs and then slapped them together and gave them interesting names, like "Guntistha Gurden," "Banana" and "The Funky Creep." I personally liked the vocal harmonies on the beginning and end of "Guntistha Garden." Could this be the new wave of music? Once again, I say "hummm?!" For ordering info of the tape by the group that inspired DigHayZoose, write: HPT c/o Dion Tyler, 605 Brian St, Liberty MO 64068.

    Heaven's Metal #34Reviewed by Doug Van PeltThese four tunes are very musical alternative songs with lots of weirdness and psychedelic grooves to it. "Glide" starts off with a few lines from the Fifth Dimension's "Up, Up and Away". It's funny. "Newt" sounds a bit like the Randy Rose/Danzig vibe for a while, with angry vocals, but then the frantic guitars change the mood to be more upbeat. A cool, Funk groove splits the song into yet…
