One verb short of a clause, it is arguably the most misguided decision in band-naming since the exclamation point in Panic! At the Disco. Thankfully, Kip, Kurt, Alex, and Peggy—who, in a seeming reversal on their word count policy, prefer to forego their surnames—are much better at making music than they were at christening themselves.On their self-titled debut album, they prove themselves...
