BOOTY kicks ass!
(BOOTY Explores the Seedy Side of Life) Well, here it is. The newest release from our good ol' friends THE MAGICAL ATTRACTION OF BOOTY, Seedy Sessions. With only four songs on the CD, "Low," "Hurricane," "Something Missing," and "Voodoo," I was only given fifteen minutes to find something bad to say.
