The Heathens
-
Contest:
2023 Fictitious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame -- Round 1
-
In the late 80’s, The Heathens were the “it” band, at least they were for a cup of coffee. Like many groups they put out one album but creative differences pulled the band apart and beyond one critically acclaimed album and one hit they would become a footnote in the canon of (fictional) rock and roll.
