Someone should tell this band “less is more.” Overall, Heads Are Gonna Roll sounds like ska-pop, adding a hint of big band swing. This combination, already pop ular among listeners, should gar ner fans for the hip Hippos. (Grade: B + ) BY B Th Jennifer Spurlock The Hippos introduce their zany and slightly distressful tunes in their new CD, Heads Are Gonna Roll. Instructions labeled on the CD tell listeners to play the album at "maximum volume.” After sifting through selections of songs like "Lost It,” “Wasting My Life,” “Struggling” and "Far Behind,” it would probably be proper to leave instructions like “listen with a large box of kleenex and a bottle of aspirin.” The band’s most credible at tempt for eager listeners would be their remake of “Always Some thing There to Remind Me,” which becomes a diamond for the CD as a memorable ’80s rebirth. Ariel Rechtshald puts in a pleas ing performance as lead vocalist.
