If you haven't heard of Kahoots yet, you're not to blame. Although the group formed in the mid-90's, for years they rarely traveled outside of their home of Martha's Vineyard, where they built an appreciative-often to the point of obsession- fan base. But consider yourself warned; you won't forgive yourself if you miss them again. Kahoots write brilliant catchy pop songs with thoughtful lyrics, more hooks than a pirate ship, and all the trappings of a good old-fashioned indie rock guitar band. 'Fourteen Ghosts', their latest full-length, is their best album yet, combining the maniac energy of punk rock with the total mastery of musicians who have played together for nearly a decade. Recent live shows in New York City and Massachusetts demonstrate what sets Kahoots apart; these kids play tight, fast and never forget to have a good time.
