Heavy Cream at Duke's 10th Anniversary Party, 4/19/2025
If you haunted Little Hamilton or Glenn Danzig’s House in the early 2010s, Heavy Cream was inescapable. They were a force of nature, one of three bands that exploded out of the flames of MEEMAW’s dissolution and, for my money, maybe the best. Propulsive, sneering and deeply funny, Heavy Cream had everything you wanted out of a band slamming through two-minute bangers. And when they took the stage at the Duke’s 10th anniversary party in April, you’d never have known that a decade had passed since their last show. Given a smattering of additional live shows in the months since, we can only hope we’ll be doing the watusi with Jessica, Mimi, Teddy and Olive for a long time to come.
