knives To each his own. When I saw Hoax in Amsterdam during their European tour, I was underwhelmed. I remember there was a lot of talk about the band's stage antics. Did the singer kick audience members in the chest during shows? Rumors maybe. There was none of that when I saw them, which was probably for the better.
At the time it seemed that people drawn to Hoax thought they were edgy in a way that did not appeal to me at all. That said, I have the 7"s and Lp. The artwork on the album is cool and I think it's great the band got a lot of artists involved for the release.
