oh yeah, squirrel nut zippers definitely swing! hey, let's call it acid
swing! but seriously, they're a fantastci band. i think swing is about the
closest i can come to categorizing them also.
they've got some great horns and a very good feel for the rhythm. check
out their second album on mammoth records, "hot". not a very dj oriented
sound, but guaranteed to get your foot tapping and your head nodding.
